Solid pace with Macario finding the front but it won't be a picnic with a few other speedy types engaged. ECORO ACE (3) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid second at Kasamatsu over 1400m. Drawn to stalk the leaders. Tackling a deeper field this time but he is good enough to take this out. MACARIO (5) has been in the placings at her last two appearances, finishing second over 1400m at this track most recently. Great chance to take this out. NOBLE COCKTAIL (7) was in a different class last time with a dominant all-the-way win by 3 lengths at this track over 1400m. Should figure in the finish. ST FLORIS (9) doesn't boast the best winning strike rate but ran a strong race last time out, finishing second and beaten only a head over 2000m at this track. Suitably placed so anticipating another bold showing.
