|---|---|---|---|---|

Genuine tempo with T Ramirez leading the way. TIGER DRAGON (8) was ridden quietly from a good draw last start before closing nicely to get up for fourth over 1400m at this track. Sure to prove tough to hold out. T RAMIREZ (4) returned from a break of four months and finished second over this course and distance last time out. Drawn to go forward. Will prove tough to beat. URBAN KID (3) kicked off this campaign with a win two runs ago. Less impressive last time out when fourth over 1400m at this track, beaten 7 lengths after being in contention on the turn. Taking on a better line-up this time but he cannot be underestimated. TAISEI ADAMAS (7) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1600m at this track, beaten 7 lengths into eighth. Well placed to turn things around.
