Ecoro Seed should lead but there are a few other speedy types who can keep him honest. LUX RAYMOND (15) is a handy type who resumes after a break of 12 weeks. At his last appearance he finished 11th over 1400m at Hanshin Dirt, beaten 10 lengths. Has never missed the frame when fresh from a spell in two starts. Should settle just off the speed and give a great sight. ECORO SEED (6) went forward from the low draw when resuming last start and sat on the pace before sticking on well to finish third over 1600m at Tokyo Dirt. Has the class to get the prize. QUAI BRANLY (7) was comfortably accounted for when sixth last time out over 1600m at Tokyo Dirt, beaten 10 lengths. That followed a win at Hanshin Dirt at the previous outing. Finds an easier assignment and can get the job done. HIRABOKU CARRERA (10) was a gutsy winner two back then ran fourth over 1200m at Kyoto Dirt on May 2. Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. Can feature in the finish.
