A solid tempo is on the cards with Bystol and Mikki Strike pushing for the lead ahead of Meisho Shirogane and Berlinetta. MIKKI STRIKE (5) turned in a modest performance when second last time out over 1600m at this track, beaten 3 lengths after being in the firing line on the corner. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Has the talent to produce another win. MEISHO SHIROGANE (4) did well to score at this track two runs ago. Not disgraced last time out when fourth over 1400m at this track, beaten 1.75 lengths. Nicely placed to return to winning form. NAMURA IRIS (1) finished seventh two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1300m at this track, beaten 5 lengths. This looks a sterner test than last time but on her best form she is one of the chief contenders. BERLINETTA (3) has been in the placings his past two starts, finishing third over 1400m at this track last time out. Must be included in calculations.
