Slick tempo with Beau Monde to lead but under plenty of pressure in a keen early contest. TRUE SUCCESSOR (1) finished out of the money but was not too far away when resuming last start over 1800m at Listed level at Kyoto. Has never been out of the placings at this stage of the prep. Leading prospect. JUSTIN EARTH (9) is a progressive galloper who is first-up since finishing seventh over 1600m at Hanshin three-and-a-half months ago. Will be handy despite the tricky draw. Best figures should see him run well. BEAU MONDE (10) was well held by Captaincy over 1600m at Nakayama at his last appearance five-and-a-half months ago. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position and is sure to be competitive. BLUE EYED GIRL (3) closed last prep three-and-a-half months ago when she finished 12th over 1600m at Hanshin. Big run is expected while fresh.
