Plenty of speed from Epona and Opulent Jewel. EPONA (8) is a promising galloper who won her maiden at her last run before a break four months ago over 2000m at this track. Possesses good early speed so should take up a forward position. Taking on some better types now but has the ability to cope. RIPOSANTE (6) is a progressive galloper who got the prize at her last run before a break four-and-a-half months ago over 2000m at this track. Kazuo Yokoyama stays aboard. Likely to feature. TROPICAL TEA (3) is back from a spell of three-and-a-half months. Raced once last campaign and finished hard to get up for second over 1800m at this track. Has a decent record here and has winning claims on her best figures. CUTIE LIP (2) was beaten 1.75 lengths into fourth in the Gr 2 Shion Stakes over 2000m at Nakayama four weeks ago. That is excellent form for a race of this calibre.
