Rio Sara is the probable leader in the small field. SKY OJI (6) showed good early dash last time out and led for most of the way before being claimed and finishing one length away in second over 1900m at this track. Will go forward again and could be tough to beat. RIO SARA (1) scored two back but was below her best last time when fifth over 1600m at this track. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including five wins. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. L'ECRIN SOURIRE (4) improved sharply on her fourth two starts back with success over 1400m at this track eight days ago, getting home by a head. Meeting a tougher field but on her best form she is one of the key runners. KUROTCHI (3) has been in the placings his past two starts, finishing second over 1400m at this track last time out. Don't underestimate.
