SAIMON ZEST (4) went forward last start over 1800m at this track and held on well for second, beaten 0.8 lengths. Should enjoy a good run just off the speed again. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he is good enough to play a major role. HALL OF MIRRORS (8) is a progressive three-year-old colt who hasn't raced since finishing second over 1900m at Kyoto Dirt on May 24 which was the only run of that prep. Rates highly and expected to go well. HIRABOKU SOLAIA (2) got the cash over 1900m at Kyoto Dirt at his most recent appearance on May 17. Sure to make his presence felt. BAKERATTA (1) never really threatened when resuming last time out, finishing midfield and beaten 8 lengths over 1800m at this track. His second-up record is strong so a far better run is anticipated this time.
