Excellen Arthur should lead but there are a few other speedy types who can keep him honest. EXCELLEN ARTHUR (3) reunites with Takayuki Yano after scoring with ease over 1000m at this track last time. Has been in sound form this prep with a win and six minor placings from nine outings. Expected to feature. COSMO EN EN (9) missed the placings last time out over this distance at this track, beaten 4 lengths. Has a very good record here including five wins from eight starts. Among the leading chances. FORCE CHILDREN (1) was prominent from the outset and fought on for second last start over 1200m at this track, making it two minor placings in a row. Drawn for a nice run just off the speed. Taking on a better field but he is up to the task. HISAMA WIN (5) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third over 1000m at this track. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race.
