MARUKA VENTO (2) scored at this track last time out with 2.5 lengths in reserve at the end of 1400m. Yet to miss the frame in two starts over this course and distance. Tatsuya Watanabe who has scored on him two times retains the mount. Leading contender. LUXE BRILLANTE (3) improved sharply with a win over 1400m at this track a week-and-a-half ago, getting home by 2 lengths. Can salute again. NEEDLESS TO SAY (6) was ridden quietly then made a little ground and finished fourth last time out over 1400m at this track a week-and-a-half ago. Tackles a longer journey this time. In the mix. HIRUNO GLASGOW (4) ran a bold race over this journey last start, racing on the pace and sticking on strongly to finish second at this track. Placed to advantage so expect a big run.
