Solid tempo anticipated with Estetica and Flugel Ku leading the way. LOVELY MONSTER (3) recorded a gutsy maiden victory last time out over 1400m at this track, scoring by a head. Shaping up nicely and he is likely to feature in the finish again. TAKAICHI FURIOSO (9) resumes after a break of three-and-a-half months. Did win at her only other first-up run when on debut, scoring over 1400m at this track. Has found a suitable race to kick off the campaign. ESTETICA (8) returns from a spell of three-and-a-half months and did win first-up last time in work over 1400m at this track. Makes plenty of appeal. VINA HAI PHONG (4) ran a better race last start to finish a close third when second-up over 1400m at this track. Likely to hold the form and is a strong top-three prospect.
