RAMA (5) has registered four minor placings from four runs this preparation. Produced another good performance at his most recent run when third over 1500m at Urawa. Tackling a deeper field this time but he is up to the task. MINORIKUN (4) drew wide last time and was safely held when 12th over this track and trip. Better than last start and open to sharp improvement. GOLD LINE (2) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 6 lengths when fifth in a 1500m contest at Urawa two-and-a-half weeks ago after being in contention on the corner. Stepping up a level this time but on his best form he is one of the key runners. STUDIA (6) is coming off a last-start fourth, beaten 5.5 lengths, over 1200m at Funabashi. Expected to feature.
