REDENTOR (6) went to the paddock after scoring at his only appearance last prep ten weeks ago over 3400m in the G3 Diamond Stakes at Tokyo. Should park just off the speed. Will play a major role. SUNRISE EARTH (5) was an impressive winner last time over 3000m in the G2 Hanshin Daishoten, scoring by 6 lengths. Getting up in the weights now. K Ikezoe retains the ride and there is no reason he cannot make it back-to-back victories. JUSTIN PALACE (13) finished 2.75 lengths away in sixth last time out over 2000m at Hanshin when resuming from a spell. Steps up in distance today. Winning rider Katsuma Sameshima sticks. Has claims on his best figures. SHONAN LA PUNTA (8) returned from a break with a solid fourth, winding up late at the end of 3000m in the G2 Hanshin Daishoten after settling well back. Well placed and is among the chances.
