CHAMPAGNE POP (2) Was amongst the placegetters when 2nd last run at Chukyo and has a good draw. Jockey Joao Moreira is an asset. Will be around the mark at odds. RED BOB (8) Made some ground late when 2nd beaten by 3/4L last time at Chukyo. Should get going late. A win wouldn't surprise. VALIGIA (12) First up after a break of 100 weeks. Solid effort to run into 3rd last time at Tokyo. Expected to be flashing home. Gets a chance to win. SUNRISE SUGAR (1) Couldn't stay in touch when 10th last time at Chukyo but will appreciate a good alley. Shows very good finishing speed. Serious player.
