Comments

Has been safely held at her past two starts, finishing sixth behind Scarborough Fair at this track last start when beaten six lengths after settling rearward. The start prior was similar, running seventh and beaten just over eight lengths at big odds. She does have a win and a placing from six at this track and distance and carries only 52kg, but current form leaves her with plenty to find.

Expected Settling Position: Midfield

Comments

Arrives off a last-start C1 win at this track, picking up sharply to beat Fortinbras by a neck at generous odds. That followed a safely held fifth behind Telemachus, so the latest effort was a clear return to form. His two wins and three placings from seven starts at this track and distance give him a solid base, and another placing is well within reach.

Expected Settling Position: Off Pace

Comments

Was disappointing when second last behind Scarborough Fair at this track last start, beaten over 12 lengths after sitting just off the pace and failing to threaten. He had earlier been favourite when sixth to Lux Schneider, with the run better than the margin suggested. Two wins from three at this track and distance, plus Masaaki Kuwamura back aboard, keep him in the place mix despite the latest flop.

Comments

Comes through two solid seconds, most recently beaten three lengths by Yamanin Elama in a C1 at this track after being run down late. She had also chased home Clever Ben over 1200m in B4 company and has been near the top of betting both times, which underlines her consistency. The win record is still light, but her current form reads well enough for another placing.

Comments

Finished seventh behind Scarborough Fair at this track last start, beaten eight lengths at big odds after giving away too much start in the straight. His previous third behind Lux Schneider was better, closing strongly into the money despite again being unwanted by the market. The veteran has placed three times from five at this track and distance, but winning looks a stretch on recent evidence.

Made it two wins in a row at this track last start, overcoming a rearward run to beat Hoyo Moon by half a length as the odds-on favourite. He had also won a C1 here start prior, scoring from Telemachus, so the form pattern is reliable. With five wins and three placings from nine starts overall and proven form at the trip, he brings the clearest winning profile in the race.

Comments

Finished last behind Scarborough Fair at this track last start, beaten over 13 lengths at big odds with no clear excuse. The start prior was only marginally better, running fifth behind Lux Schneider after looming but failing to go on. His record around 1800m is thin, with one placing from 13 attempts, and his recent figures leave him hard to recommend.

Comments

Improved last start when fourth behind Scarborough Fair at this track, beaten three and a half lengths after settling rearward in a race where the market gave him respect. That was a better showing than his previous last behind Lux Schneider, where he was beaten over 11 lengths. Takafumi Hattori has a strong record on him, but he profiles more as a place hope than a major winning threat.

Comments

Won with authority at this track last start, beating Universal Love by three lengths in a C1 after being sent out favourite. That followed a sound third behind Blast Black over 1600m, so his form has a strong, consistent look. Four wins and four placings from ten starts at this venue is a major asset, and he is one of the main threats to the top pick.

Comments

Returns from a five-week freshening after finishing third behind Zero Hour in a COND at this track, beaten four and a half lengths at generous odds. That followed a nose defeat when a short odds-on favourite, so her consistency is difficult to knock. With two wins and five placings from ten starts around 1800m, she has the grounding to run another honest place race.

Comments

Was below expectations last start when sixth behind Queen's Merengue over 1200m at this track as favourite, tracking the speed but not finishing off. His start prior was much better, winning a B4 by two and a half lengths from Piena Cresco. The rise to 1800m asks for improvement after two unplaced tries around the trip, yet his overall track record keeps him a strong winning chance.

Comments

Was fifth behind Scarborough Fair at this track last start, beaten five lengths after being overrun late. That was an improvement on her previous tenth behind Zero Hour in a COND, where she was beaten over 13 lengths at huge odds. Her two wins and one placing from six at this track and distance are positives, but recent form still leaves her chasing the main chances.
