Oken In The Sun to set a strong tempo, booting up on the inside of Shigeru Zircon and Lord Ohia. TRIBAL KING (2) was fourth last start over 1800m at this track, beaten 2.75 lengths. Expected to be in this for a long way. OKEN IN THE SUN (1) finished fourth over 1500m at this track last time out and was a determined winner two back. Regular rider Shunya Hasebe back aboard again. Expected to be in the finish. LORD OHIA (8) is building towards a win with placings at his last two runs, the latest when second at this track when beaten 1.5 lengths. Should be camped just off the leaders and likely be involved here on best form. S C VARONA (7) struggling to break through but hasn't been far away, the latest finishing a close third at this track. Racing well without winning and can find the frame on best form.
