SILENT VOICE (11) was thereabouts last time out when second at Nagoya over 1500m, beaten a neck. Is in solid form this time in work, scoring two times and placing on four occasions from nine starts. Expected to be in the finish. RICHARD WIN (1) raced in the leading division and kept going to score by 2.5 lengths last time out over 1400m at Nagoya. Should be prominent again from the low draw. Needs to be at her best to beat this field but she is up to the challenge. AILES VAGUE (8) is a nine-start maiden who resumed from a spell last start and was beaten 7 lengths when sixth over 1400m at this track. Will derive great benefit from that outing and deserves consideration. DAIGO HOMARE RYU (2) resumes from a spell of ten weeks after closing off last preparation with three consecutive minor placings. Drawn to enjoy a nice trail just off the pace. Solid claims on best form.
