LOST IN SUMMER (1) drew wide and ran poorly last start when beaten 3.5 lengths into sixth at this course and distance. Fared better at the barrier draw this time. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Will prove tough to beat. HUACHICHON (2) progressed nicely last time out to finish just 0.3 lengths from the winner in second over 1000m at this track. Meets some better types this time but another big run is on the cards. MISTER HIRABOKU (9) was responsible for a solid effort last time out when third at this track over 1000m, beaten half a length. Big chance to score. GRAN AVI (12) fought on for second last start over 1000m at this track, beaten 5 lengths to add to some fine recent form. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race.
