Strong tempo assured with Rouge Chouette and Channel Tunnel leading the way over Jun Vin Quete. CHANNEL TUNNEL (2) was in the money two starts back at this track but was unable to repeat the effort last time when eighth, beaten 4.5 lengths, at Chukyo over 1600m after being in the firing line on the bend. Finds a nice race and can make amends. EPOCH VENUS (9) found the line nicely last start to get up for second over 1600m at this track. Has a win and two minor placings from four starts at this track and distance. Likely to feature. JUN VIN QUETE (4) returns after a spell of five months. Looking to emulate his win at Chukyo to kick off the last campaign. Has recorded two wins when first up from a break. One to consider. HAWAIIAN TIARE (1) returns from a spell of 12 weeks. Was safely held at the only appearance last prep when 11th over 1600m at Chukyo. One to consider on an each-way basis.
