Expecting a strong gallop with Jazz Pianist and Smile Thrive taking up the running over Luce Bianca. SMILE THRIVE (1) is a talented galloper who is unbeaten in two runs this time in, the latest at this track over 1400m. Far too good last start and expected to be in the finish again. JASMINE CHARA (7) is a distance specialist who is coming along nicely this prep. Finished fourth when fresh from a spell two starts back at this track then improved and scored over 1500m at Funabashi three weeks ago, getting home by half a length after being in contention on the turn. Has her share of ability. Hard to beat again in this suitable race. AMARELO FLAVOR (4) resumes in a similar race to his last run six months ago when second, beaten 0.8 lengths. Goes very well here having never been out of the placings. Has to be respected. JAZZ PIANIST (9) has not been sighted since she finished second over 1500m at this track on April 18. Has sound form here including a win and three minor placings from four starts. Credentials hard to knock.
