Fine Gift should find the front with Konohanasakuyahime and Rhein Portulaca on her heels. G T SAINT (5) turned in a fine effort to score by 1.3 lengths at this track and distance last start in a far better run. Likely to be there at the finish again. RHEIN PORTULACA (10) filled yet another minor placing last time when 7 lengths adrift in second over 1750m at this track after being in contention all the way. Well placed this line-up and there is no reason she cannot find winning ways. FILLMORE TESORO (6) finished fifth over 1400m at this track last time out following a determined win two back. Isao Yamaguchi who has scored on him four times retains the mount. Has claims on his best figures. FINE GIFT (7) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago but couldn't follow that up last time out when fourth over 1400m at this track, beaten 3 lengths. In contention this time.
