Looks to be plenty of pace with Ultimo and La La Vendange battling for the lead. ULTIMO (6) scored at her most recent appearance, getting home by 6 lengths over 1400m at Himeji as favourite. That continued the solid form this campaign, with two wins from four runs. Can measure up again. LA LA VENDANGE (9) went forward and proved too strong last time out, scoring by 2.5 lengths over 1400m at Himeji. Nicely placed to give this a mighty shake. A SHIN PULSAR (2) turned in a modest performance when sixth last time out over 800m at Himeji after a win at this track at the previous outing. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. CHERRY TIME (4) produced a better run last start, finishing fifth over 1400m at Himeji. Well placed and in the mix.
