Pace only fair with Cosmo Anthology rolling to the lead ahead of Chernobog and G T Muso. CON FORZA (6) was sent out at long odds last time but ran above expectations to finish third, beaten only 0.8 lengths, over 1800m at Tokyo. Record at this journey is impressive with two wins and two placings from six runs and expected to go close again. CHERNOBOG (7) hasn't been too far away of late, the latest effort a fifth, beaten 2 lengths, at Kyoto over 1800m. Has recorded four minor placings from as many starts over this course and distance. Leading contender. COSMO ANTHOLOGY (3) made progress last time out, finishing 2 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 1800m at Kyoto. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. G T MUSO (4) resumes. Didn't make an impact at his only run last prep on August 30, finishing 11th and beaten 11 lengths over 1800m at Niigata. Among the better hopes.
