The result of this race might all depend on the first 200m. IBARAKI impressed at the trials, but was slowish to begin and has drawn a slightly tricky barrier on the Speed Map. TEXCEL and SMART LEE (probably gets back) are the main threats in what looks like a pretty thin race. Barrier trial notes; IBARAKI (slow jump moved up too good 1st), OPTIMO (on-pace 1st, near pace plain 8th), SMARTY LEE (back 6th, mid 1st, mid 2nd, back 1st), TEXCEL (near pace quiet 4th, mid 4th).
