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

Plenty of pace likely from Moira, Bitcoin and K's Blanc battling for the lead from Fast Lane. SUN LYCORIS (4) was a winner over 1200m at this track last time out, dropping out early before coming home with a powerful run to score by 1.5 lengths. In form and will take beating again. MOIRA (3) returned from a break of five months and finished third over this course and distance last time out. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Will prove tough to beat. K'S BLANC (9) raced on the speed and kept going to score by 0.8 lengths last time out. Has her share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. FAST LANE (2) is having his first run since February 12. Has a very good fresh record, scoring two times including one over 1400m at Kasamatsu at the start of last prep. Worth plenty of thought.
