Expecting a strong gallop with A Shin Jasper and Kichi Fighter taking up the running over Merry Sense. A SHIN JASPER (7) raced in the leading division and kept going to score by 3 lengths when resuming last time out over 1400m at this track. Meeting a deeper field this time but she has the ability to mix it with them. KICHI FIGHTER (4) produced a reasonable effort when third last start over 1400m at this track, beaten a long neck. That followed a win at Himeji the start prior. Meeting a tougher field but on his best form he is one of the chief contenders. MERRY SENSE (6) proved too strong last start and scored by 2.5 lengths over 1400m at this track. Has a good record at this track with two wins and six minor placings. Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. Will give backers a great sight. SPIRITOSO (1) ran sixth at his latest appearance over 1400m at this track, clocking in 2.25 lengths from the winner. Ticks all the right boxes.
