MAGO ICHITA (8) resumes from a four-month break with the strongest recent profile, having ended last campaign with a second over 1400m at this track after a C3 win by two and a half lengths from Smart Rave. His one win and three places from eight starts at this track and distance give him the right base to take beating fresh. PPALLIPPALLI (4) is the obvious danger after closing strongly for second, beaten a length by T O Robinson, and her long record at this track and distance keeps her right in play. SMART KINGDOM (2) has not fired at his past two over shorter trips, but six wins and five places from 15 starts at this track and distance make the return to 1400m a major positive. ISABELLA SUNRISE (1) has been safely held in C2 grade, yet the lighter weight and easier C3 assignment give her some chance to improve into the money.
