Strong tempo likely with several going forward, headed by Pandeiro and Pod Glass. KING SLAYER (8) found a couple better last start at this track over this distance. Has a strong record at this trip, scoring seven times from 14 starts. Should be right there at the business end. MIYABI MORTAR (9) started at $3.20 last time but could only manage fourth at this track over 1200m. Winning rider Akira Harita stays aboard. In the mix. PANDEIRO (2) improved last time out to score by a nose over 1500m at Urawa. Suitably placed and anticipating another big run. MARUHIRO KNIGHT (4) did a great job to score by 2 lengths over this course and distance last start in a far better effort. Likely to be there at the finish again.
