In depth
Verdict
An interesting race that can go to Made In Japan, whose recent form suggests that he may be too tenacious an opponent for Golano and Peralandra; despite the son of Barathea being burdened by being set to carry top weight. Beau Artiste and Kristoffersen are others who are capable of getting involved in the shake-up if they hit the gates running and add a touch of intrigue to the framing of this competitive handicap. However, Made In Japan has come up against a couple of progressive sorts in his last two starts and deserves a change of fortune after showing a good attitude in defeat. His experience over the trip of a mile and a half gives him a slender advantage over Golano on these terms and, as the more proven stayer, Made In Japan is taken to add to his maiden win gained at the course on his first start last December.
