SKY HIGH (1) resumed last time out and finished third over 1400m at Hanshin, beaten 2 lengths. Honest type with a strong record course and distance. Hard to beat after a good return. CAUGHT ALLICIANT (3) hasn't been far away recently including last time out when third over 1400m at this track. Overdue for a win. Strong chance from a low draw. RED EVANS (6) was fresh from a break of two months last start when beaten 3.5 lengths into third over 1200m at Kyoto. The extra journey should play into his hands. Nice return and fitter again. Leading rider stays aboard and will be running on hard. TOSEN ESCUDO (4) was in the firing line on the bend and finished third last time over 1200m at Nakayama when resuming from a spell, beaten 0.8 lengths. Placed 2/2 course and distance. Placed last five runs and deserves a win.
