Loads of pressure, primarily from Narukami, Nishino Blazest and Rossiniana. SUM SHINE (9) saluted at this track two runs ago. Decent effort last time out when prominent at the turn before finishing second over 1800m at this track, beaten 2 lengths. Has raced four times here and has never missed the frame. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot make amends. ROSSINIANA (7) is a talented colt who has been in the money at both appearances. Last appeared when he scored over 1800m at this track on January 26. Should be prominent from the outset. Expected to be in the finish. NARUKAMI (11) returns from a spell of three-and-a-half months and did score first-up when last in work at Kyoto Dirt over 1800m. Lines up for the first time for the Hiroyasu Tanaka stable. Can make his presence felt. DANON MISSION (10) finished second last time over 1800m at Nakayama, beaten a nose. Will trim down following recent racing. Placed to advantage and can fill another top-three spot.
