SISTER NEBULA (12) has a moderate winning strike-rate but performed well when returning from a break last time at this track, finishing third and only 2.5 lengths from the winner at the end of 1400m after being prominent at the corner. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. MARGOT ECLAT (2) opened this campaign last start with a third, beaten 4 lengths, over 1400m at this track. Has a win and two placings at this journey from seven starts. Sure to prove tough to beat. BRIGHTIA BUENA (9) is a distance specialist who did little and finished 7 lengths from the winner in eighth over 1200m at Funabashi last start, a less impressive effort than her sixth at Funabashi the run before. Finds a nice race and can figure in the finish. ULTIMATE (11) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a sixth over 1200m at Funabashi after being prominent at the corner. Likely improver with strong prospects.
