Verdict

PEPTIDE SPARKLE (7) was well in commission last start over 7f at this track when second. Is a winner at this circuit. Will be hard to stop. EXCEL BLACK (4) improved last time out to score by half a length over 1m at Kawasaki. Ideally placed and is sure to play a major role. SURGE (8) last time out scored by a head over 7 ½f at Funabashi. Haruto Nakayama scored on him last time and retains the ride. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot score again. RHEIN ARTEMIS (5) resumes from a spell of nine weeks. Looked close to a win before that break, finishing off with a minor placing over 7f at this track. Good effort to kick-off last prep when in the money at this track over 4f. Has ability and is worth including.
