The race lacks early speed so doubt they will go too hard. NISHINO KAKEHASHI (7) returned from a layoff last start and was fourth over 1000m at this track. Plenty of improvement to come and with added fitness, she is one of the chief contenders. MAGICAL WEEK (1) resumes in a similar race to his last run eight months ago when sixth. Expect him to play a major role. ROPIA (5) ran below expectations when fresh from a spell at this track over 1200m last time, finishing seventh. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including a win and five minor placings. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time. TONCHAN (11) took advantage of the good draw and raced on the pace last start before tiring to finish fifth over 1000m at this track. Worth including.
