|---|---|---|---|---|

Expecting Cherie Amour to find the lead but there will be plenty of pressure over the sprint course. LUMINAVAL (7) was impressive last time at this track, scoring by 6 lengths over this trip. Should be poised just off the lead. Will play a major role. UWASANO HARUKA (5) continued the solid form last start, finishing half a length back in second at this track over today's trip. Hard to knock and is a winning hope again. CHERIE AMOUR (6) drew wide last time and was safely held when fifth over this track and trip. Has a high cruising speed. Sure to be competitive. VIKANDER (4) ran below her best when ninth last start over 1000m at this track, beaten 10 lengths. Better than last start and worth another chance.
