1. SECRET HARMONY is a decent bred but lacks preparation. ST ELMOS FIRE impressed in gates, distance will suit.IMPERIAL TREASURE had led in well but was nabbed at the wire. should win easily if at decent odds. SHINKASEN had made up much ground in final furlong, rider repeats.
IMPERIAL TREASURE(7)-WIN
SHNKASEN(10)/ ST ELMOS FIRE(5)-PLACE.
2. SPIRIT OF ZEON is pleasing in tracks, has benefited from an easy run.FLYING FANTASY is from a decently performed mare who has done well in breeding , looks in fine condition. PHOENIX WONDER is an ordinary bred who flopped as favorite last time, ignore that run. REGINA from the same connections has done well in both outings, can upset.
PHOENIX WONDER(9)-WIN
FLYING FANTASY(7)/ REGINA(10)-PLACE.
3. AMAZON CAT won well and looks to repeat, added weight and distance are worries. LIGHTENING THUNDER has an allowance rider after two try runs under a suspect rider. BANDITESS is still a maiden, has been shown gates. BOOGIE WOOGIE is down in scales. PRINCE OF KNIGHTS came up well in last two runs.
LIGHTENING THUNDER(5)-WIN
ARIZONA CAT(1)/ BANDITESS(7)-PLACE.
4. EMERITUS was hardly ridden out as favorite, can win on a sincere ride in class race. GIVE ME GOLD ran a notable race in 4 years old group, has fine form. SCARLATTI flopped in oldies, had run a suggestive 2nd to BAMBINO earlier. CACHAREL is a front runner who has low weights.
EMERITUS(1)-WIN
SCARLATTI(3)/ GIVE ME GOLD(2)-PLACE.
5. GOOD FORTUNE is a fine type who may do well in first run here. SOOTHSAYER has been given a run, should score now.COUNTRYS COURAGE could not pace up as favorite, runs with hope. GLORIOUS REWARD is in rousing form but faces younger horses here.
SOOTHSAYER(3)-WIN
COUNTRYS COURAGE(5)/ GLORIOUS REWARD(8)-PLACE.
6. ONE KEPT SECRET finished on from back of the field last time, is down in scales and has a fine chance. EXTREME LOVE won easily in both outings and may look for the hat trick. QUICK ENOUGH retains zest even at this age. PENTAGRAM has raced with better types, has been shown gates.
ONE KEPT SECRET(2)-WIN
PENTAGRAM(9)/ EXTREME LOVE (3)-PLACE.
7. KNIGHT OF KE failed to justify top billing in last run, has much to make up. PABLITO was a sensation last season, has not been worked openly. TOP COMMANDER has been given soft run, will do better now. MAJESTERIAN failed to catch up as favorite has a try rider at low weights.
TOP COMMANDER(7)-WIN
KNIGHT OF KE(2)/ MAJESTERIAN(10)-PLACE.
8. BARYSHNIKHOV was pulled/ packed in last run, earlier win was authentic. AGUANTE was kept easy, has raced well at previous centre GLORIOUS REGIME finished with a rattle to snatch victory, may repeat. KING OF KINGS has flopped both times? may have been deliberate as questions are never asked from the connections.
BARYSHNIKHOV(1)-WIN
GLORIOUS REGIME(9)/ AGUANTE(8)-PLACE.
