EPIC FLIGHT (11) impressed when successful as favourite on debut over 2000m at this track a year ago and has not appeared since. Sat handy from an outside draw but kept coming to score. Has upside and leading rider engaged. Promising type who can get the job done again. PIECE UNIQUE (6) is a promising type who scored at her last run before a break five-and-a-half months ago over 2000m at this track. Leading contender on best figures. MO EEDESHO (4) progressed nicely last time out to finish just 1.75 lengths from the winner in second over 2000m at Niigata. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. NORTHERN TITAN (8) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1800m at Niigata, beaten 4 lengths. Strips fitter and should be thereabouts.
