Bagan is likely to take charge and set a decent tempo. FINAL HEAT (7) ran fourth at his latest appearance over 2000m at Nakayama, finishing 2.25 lengths from the winner. Made considerable ground that day in an eye-catching effort. Key runner. SPIN THE BLOOD (8) last appeared on March 15 when a good sixth over 2200m at Chukyo, beaten 1.5 lengths. Strong chance to kick the campaign off on the right note. BAGAN (1) doesn't win out of turn but ran a nice race last time out over 2200m at Kyoto, finishing third and beaten 2.25 lengths after being in the firing line on the bend. Finds a suitable assignment and can get the job done. ADMIRE SORA (6) finished seventh over 1900m at Chukyo Dirt at his most recent appearance on January 18. Each-way appeal.
