Yuna Pink Gold has good early speed and can set a decent tempo. YUNA PINK GOLD (2) raced in the leading division and kept going to score by 2 lengths last time out over 1400m at Himeji. Finds a tougher race but another big run is on the cards. OKYOMPI (7) was an impressive maiden winner last time out, scoring by 1.5 lengths over 1500m at Himeji. Shaping up nicely and he is right in the mix again. VICTORY KNIGHT (4) has switched yards since resuming with a win over 1400m at Himeji. Did score at this stage when last in work at this track over 1400m. Racing for the first time under a new trainer Yoshihiro Iida. Well-placed and is among the chances. COEUR ET CASSIS (1) has switched yards since finishing eighth seven weeks ago over 1400m at Himeji. Worth plenty of thought.
