Anticipate Saimon Veloce, Landshut and Herz As to set a strong tempo. Lots of these find it hard to win but liked the return of HO O RAVEN (8). Saluted at Chukyo two runs ago before a break then fresh-up drifted too far back but stormed home for a close-up fourth. Fitter and is the one to hold out. TAKE THE CROWN (2) is still a maiden but rarely runs a bad race. Resumed from a spell last start with a sound second over 2400m at Hanshin when he worked home well. Has placed 3/4 this course and distance and can find winning form. FIRM TWENTY (11) was thereabouts last time out when third over 2000m at Hanshin. Won't be bothered by this longer journey. SUNSET VIEW (1) has not won for a long while. Last raced on September 13 when beaten 3.5 lengths into fourth at Hanshin over 2400m after being in the firing line on the corner. Finds a suitable assignment and can find winning form again.
