Ask Vue Reve More should lead but there are a few other speedy types who can keep him honest. HERCULES TOWER (3) closed last campaign with back-to-back placings, the last of which was at Kyoto Dirt nine months ago. Finds a very nice race to kick off the campaign. GRAND ROSE (4) is a distance specialist who missed the frame last start over 1700m at Sonoda, finishing eighth. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. CHERRY TIME (6) was on a winning run of two races but last time out missed the frame when seventh over 1400m at Sonoda. This looks a winnable race. SPUR CROSS (9) made it four minor placings in a row last start when second over 1400m at this track. Can feature again.
