Good tempo with Makoto Velikij and Aimee Vibert leading the way. FLEUR (4) built on a nice second two starts back at Nakayama with a win over 2600m at Fukushima three weeks ago, getting home by 2 lengths. Has her share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. MAKOTO VELIKIJ (1) is a last-start winner over the shorter trip of 2000m at Hanshin, getting home by a head. Nice weight drop so he is expected to measure up again. SHIHONO SPERANZA (5) has been out of the placings in two runs since a break, the latest when eighth, beaten 4 lengths, over 2600m at Hanshin after he got a long way back. Cherry-ripe now and is capable of sharp improvement. SILKY VOICE (3) was always well back last start at the first run of this campaign and never threatened, finishing 12th over 2500m at Nakayama. Should run well.
