Strong early tempo with Preflop All In and Ford Tesoro leading the way. PREFLOP ALL IN (8) was in great form at the end of the last campaign with back-to-back wins, the latest over 1900m at this track a year ago. Change of rider to Minoru Miyagawa who has an excellent strike rate when in the saddle, including 10 wins. Should be hard to stop. YUMENO HONOO (12) clocked-in third behind Kazeno Runner when first up from a spell last time out at Saga over 2000m. Boasts dominant form here with 20 wins from 25 starts. Bold showing expected. POINT FORWARD (1) made it four wins in a row last time out when he scored by 0.8 lengths over 1400m at this track. Must raise the bar but this looks well within his grasp. FORD TESORO (2) finished 5 lengths behind the winner in sixth over 1400m at this track last start after lifting strongly to score two runs back. Record here is impressive with five wins from 12 starts. Must be respected.
