Looks a race in three. MEISHO TENKU (4) was a long way back last start but hit the line well to finish fifth, beaten 3.5 lengths, over 2200m in the G2 Kyoto Shimbun Hai. Nice class drop today and in a field of limited depth he looks the goods. DO ADVANTAGE (11) sat just off the speed and fought on well to finish second when resuming last start at this course and distance. Yet to miss the frame from four starts at the trip, including a win. Poses the greatest threat. MAKANA ANELA (6) has been in the placings at his last two starts, finishing third last time over 2000m at this track. Likely to be about the mark again. IDOCRASE (8) returns from a layoff of ten weeks. Scored over 1800m at Kokura to launch the last campaign. Worth throwing in the exotics.
