WAR HAMMER (6) is racing well this preparation, including a last start win over 1400m at Kanazawa to bring up two wins from four runs in the campaign. Should camp just off the leaders. Likely to feature. LORD FREUDE (8) started at $1.90 last time and ran below expectations, finishing fifth and beaten 5 lengths at this track over 1400m. Beautifully placed and is sure to take plenty of stopping. ELEGANT WINK (1) improved last start to finish second over 1400m at this track after being prominent at the turn. Has her share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. RESURRECTIO (5) is a seven-start maiden who returned last time and finished fourth at this track over 1400m, beaten 5.5 lengths. Definite top-three hope with plenty of improvement to come.
