Anticipate Maile Lei, Yoruno Teio and Dread to set a strong tempo. DREAD (5) returns from a layoff of four months. Scored over 1200m at this track at the start of last prep. Rates highly and is likely to be prominent. BELLWOOD ONE (8) has put together back-to-back placings after scoring three back at this track, most recently beaten 2 lengths into second over 1200m at this track. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. MAILE LEI (6) was well in commission last time but ran below expectations when fourth and beaten 3.5 lengths over 1200m at this track. Goes well at this journey with five wins from 15 starts and should play a prominent role. LEO SPARK (2) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1800m at Nakayama Dirt, beaten 12 lengths into 11th. Well placed to bounce back.
