Slick tempo with Svarna Paksa to lead but under plenty of pressure in a keen early contest. RED LEGGERA (6) is putting together some solid results. Finished second here two starts back then scored by 0.8 lengths last time out over 1400m at this track. Shota Muramatsu scored on him last time and retains the mount. Taking on a better field but he is up to the task. YUMEKA UTSUTSUKA (1) broke through for her maiden win over 1400m at this track last time, scoring comfortably. Shaping up nicely and she cannot be underestimated. BON WEEKEND (2) is building towards a win with placings at his last two runs, the latest effort a second over 1400m at this track when beaten half a length. Should park just off the speed. Winning claims on best figures. NISHINO ZAIHO (3) last start finished eighth at this track over 1750m. Suitably placed and can crack the top three.
