Good pace expected with Starkey, A Shin Dueler and Hiro Shige Wave paving the way. MAROON TRICK (11) resumes. Wasn't far away at last run before a break, finishing fourth over 1400m at this track 11 weeks ago. Has found the right race. STARKEY (6) showed good early speed and raced on the pace last start before fading to finish sixth, beaten 4 lengths, over 1400m at Himeji. Rates highly and expected to go well. SAIMON NOBLE (12) finished second at this track and distance at his last appearance ten weeks ago. Has to be respected. FANTASMA (10) resumes in a similar race to his last run three months ago when sixth, beaten 7 lengths. Looks a strong top-three prospect.
