Plenty of pace with Basilis and War Hammer up front, pressured by Curren What's Up and Blade Success. CURREN WHAT'S UP (5) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1800m at Chukyo Dirt, beaten 0.9 lengths. Has a fair record when second up, including two top-three finishes. Strips fitter and can find winning ways. MIRAIENO KAGI (11) is back after a break of three months. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 1800m at Kyoto Dirt. Among the better hopes. NOAH VIVACE (10) is back from a three months spell and he does run well first-up, including a win over 1600m at Tokyo Dirt at the start of last prep. Should be prominent. BLADE SUCCESS (2) strode forward early from his wide draw when resuming last start over 1800m at this track then fought on gamely to finish second. Ready to go one better.
