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

Expecting Water Clark to take up the running with Daishin Ra and Baileychlore close at hand. PARADIS REINE (5) is a talented filly who has been in the money at both appearances. Has not been produced since she was successful over 1800m at this track on December 14. Has plenty of upside so she looks sure to feature. CON FORZA (4) is a strong fresh performer back after a break of four months and looking to emulate his win at Tokyo to kick off the last campaign. Likely to take beating. WATER CLARK (2) resumes after a break of three months. Did win at his only other first-up run when on debut, scoring over 1800m at this track. Will be hard to stop. BAILEYCHLORE (8) has not raced since he scored over 1600m at this track on November 24. Sure to be competitive.
