PUNK BEAT (2) showed good pace and went on to score by 1.5 lengths last time out over 1400m at Urawa. Should settle handy in the run. Goes up a rung or two but he is good enough to take this out. JUNE DRAGON (3) is a model of consistency with top-three finishes at his last five starts, most recently scoring over 1200m at Ohi. Hard to knock and is a winning hope again. SORGENTE PO (1) finished second last time over 1200m at this track, beaten a nose. This looks a sterner test than last time but on her best form she is good enough to take this out. FILER TEMPS (5) turned in a fine effort to win by 1.5 lengths at this track and distance last start to maintain his good form of late. Likely to be there at the finish again.
