|---|---|---|---|---|

Good pace headed by Lemon Chiffon, La La Marcherdroit and Collier D'or, with Tarte Poire and Top American close by. LA LA MARCHERDROIT (8) has strung together a couple of wins at this course, the latest on May 17 over 1300m when he scored by 30 lengths. Winning rider Minoru Miyagawa retains the mount. Going up a level this time but he deserves plenty of thought. WONDERFUL TODAY (10) has strung together a couple of wins at this circuit, the latest on May 17 over 1300m when he scored by 8 lengths. One of the key runners. TARTE POIRE (11) strode forward early last start from her wide draw and was never headed, scoring by half a length at this track over 1300m. Must be included. LEMON CHIFFON (9) is putting together some solid results. Finished third two starts back then got the job done by a neck last time out over 1400m at this track. Can score again.
