APOLO DEZ (3) returns from a spell. Finished fourth at this track and distance at his only appearance last prep ten weeks ago. Goes very well at this journey, boasting seven wins from 11 starts and is among the leading chances. OLYMPIC NATIONAL (8) got home by 6 lengths on dirt at this track two starts ago. Disappointed in another run on dirt last time at Taruma over 2000m when 8 lengths from the winner in fourth. Good record at this journey with two wins and four minor placings from seven starts and is expected to feature. L'ENTE SUPREMO (12) has been freshened up since he finished sixth over 2000m at Group 3 level at Taruma five weeks ago. Sound record at this distance with four wins and five minor placings from 10 runs and shapes as one to consider. TREASURE CARTIER (4) turned in another moderate effort last start when finishing ninth over 2000m at this track. Well placed to turn things around.
