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

Sizzling pace from King's True, Ametista and Molto Maestoso locking horns ahead of King Glory and Nocturne. NOCTURNE (10) is a progressive four-year-old filly who resumes from a break of ten weeks, her last appearance being a win over 2000m at Tokyo. Goes well when fresh including a win and three minor placings. Has good early toe so she should be handy in the run. Likely to feature. AMETISTA (15) showed good early speed and raced on the pace when first-up after a spell last start before fading to finish 14th, beaten 8 lengths, over 2400m in the G1 Yushun Himba (Japanese Oaks) at Tokyo. Will take some beating. SATONO SOTIRAS (13) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third over 2400m at Kyoto. Nicely placed to play a pivotal role. KING'S TRUE (1) built on a nice second two starts back at this track with success over 2400m at Niigata two months ago, getting home by 3.5 lengths. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well.
