It's likely to be tactical given scant early speed. HIMARIN (6) has been in the placings her past two starts, finishing second over 1400m at this track last time out. Has been in the money three times over this course and distance and a bold showing is expected. CAVALIER QUEST (2) progressed nicely last time out to finish just a neck from the winner in second over 1400m at this track. Strong prospects. COLLEGIUM (1) is fitter for two runs back from a spell, progressing nicely last time to finish fourth at this track over 1400m. Should be at his peak now and is worth consideration here. WONDER GUARNERI (4) is back after a break of four-and-a-half months. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 1400m at Sonoda. Sure to make his presence felt.
