|---|---|---|---|---|

Plenty of pace from the outset with Blade Runner and Asbury leading the charge. ASBURY (8) returns from a spell of three-and-a-half months. Was safely held at the only appearance last prep when fifth over 1500m at Urawa. Should be poised just off the lead. Will prove tough to beat. K TWO BALBOA (12) returns from a break of five-and-a-half months. Genuine performer last prep whose most recent appearance resulted in a second over 2000m at this track. Finds the right race to launch another bright campaign. MIND BLOWN (6) fought on for second last start over 1600m at this track, making it two minor placings in a row. Finds a suitable race and can figure in the finish. BRAVE JOURNEY (3) scored an impressive win by 4 lengths when resuming from a spell last time out over 1400m at this track. Open to plenty of improvement and he can measure up again.
