Abundant pace from Prime Blue, Shadow Castle and Ho O Ramesses vying for the lead with Gotland on their backs. MIDAS (4) finished fourth over 1700m at Fukushima Dirt at his most recent appearance on June 28. Sure to make his presence felt. SUN KALMIA (9) was doing his best work late last start to get up for second over 1800m at this track. Kazuki Kikuzawa stays aboard and although yet to win has been in the money on four occasions. Fitter and is expected to feature. KAZENO TAKATOSHI (2) turned in a nice run last time to finish second over 1800m at this track after being prominent at the turn. Looks well placed so expect another big run. GOTLAND (7) finished 6 lengths from the winner in eighth last time out over 1700m at Fukushima Dirt on July 5. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Can feature in the finish.
