CARINO (5) was well in commission when resuming last start over 2000m at Tokyo when third, beaten 3.5 lengths. Sound record at this distance with two wins and nine minor placings from 14 runs and is a leading contender. STELLA CROWN (1) returned from a break last start with a modest fifth over 2000m at Kyoto, beaten 3.5 lengths. Looking to build on an imposing record at this circuit which includes two wins. Mirai Iwata goes well on this five-year-old and is back on top today. Likely to feature. LORD GALLERIA (2) was well fancied when resuming last start and proved too strong, scoring by a nose over 2400m at Kyoto. Has a solid second-up record and can go on with it. DANON CASERTA (3) showed good early speed and led into the straight before fading to finish 12th, beaten 8 lengths, over 2400m at Tokyo. Sure to give a sight.
