Tokyo Race 11 - The Epsom Cup(G3)

TROVATORE (11) got the cash over 1600m in the G3 Tokyo Shimbun Hai at this track at his most recent appearance on February 10. Goes well when fresh and looks a huge chance to add to his trophy cabinet. SAKURA FARREL (14) went to the paddock after scoring at his only appearance last prep 11 weeks ago over 2000m at this track. Has a high cruising speed. New to black type racing but his best figures should see him run well. KALAMATIANOS (4) returns after a spell of ten weeks. Looking to emulate his win at Nakayama at the beginning of last prep. Has won at this level in the past so worth plenty of thought. SUBMARINER (2) produced a nice effort last time when a close second in stakes class at Hanshin over 1800m. Back from a nine-week break. Deserves respect on best figures.
