Expecting Lingus Rocher to take up the running with Sorceress and Dreepy close at hand. LINGUS ROCHER (4) scored at his most recent appearance, getting home by 1.5 lengths over 1200m at this track as favourite. That continued the good form this campaign, with three wins from seven runs. Leading player again. ESPERANZA KAZU (8) impressed last time out at the second run of the campaign and finished 3 lengths from the winner in third over 1200m at this track. Must raise the bar but another big run is on the cards. SORCERESS (5) is yet to fill a placing in two runs since resuming from a spell, the latest when eighth over 1400m at Urawa. Cherry-ripe now and can find peak form this time. TAISEI FORTE (6) impressed last time out at the second run of the campaign and finished 3 lengths from the winner in third over 1200m at this track. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well.
