Strong pace with Naeil Na, Saiseisei and Hierba Buena pushing forward, closely attended by Rouge Amalia and Unwritten Rule. HIERBA BUENA (2) finished second over 1400m at this track at his most recent appearance on December 13. Strong chance to kick the campaign off on the right note. BIG SHOW TIME (7) was well fancied last start over 1400m at this track when sixth. Well-placed to make amends. LEESAN EYE (1) returns from a spell of four-and-a-half months and is having his first run for a new yard. Finished eighth at Kyoto over 2200m when first-up last time in work. One of the genuine hopes in the race. ROUGE AMALIA (4) got the prize two runs ago but couldn't follow that up last time out when ninth over 1400m at this track. Worth another chance.
