RISING STEP (10) Fresh from a spell. Put the head down when winning last run at the track and fitter for debut run. Must be considered. DEAR SIMBA (2) Game effort to win narrowly last time here and will try to take advantage of the draw. Takayuki Yano and Keiyuki Suzuki are consistently competitive when paired. Key player. ASCOT MIYAGI (6) Fought on well to win a tight contest by 1/2L last time at this track and putting a tidy record together so far. Well placed and has solid claims. RIKO HUGHES (9) Tidy run when 3rd last run at this venue. Has run into the money 2 from 2 attempts this campaign. Recent form of Katsunori Arayama is strong. Has to be strongly considered.
