#1 Romantic Warrior returns to action following his Yasuda Kinen success in Japan back in early June. He’s looked sensational in his trials, and it’s hard to pinpoint a credible threat in this field. #8 Ensued was impressive in his G3 Sa Sa Ladies’ Purse win last start, indicating he’s on an upward trajectory. #6 Sword Point set a quick pace on his last outing but only weakened late; he should be more competitive with a steadier ride. #7 Ka Ying Generation disappointed first-up on the all-weather but is more suited to turf and the 2000m distance, which should play to his strengths.
