Great Son is expected to burn across and lead from the wide gate. Looks a race in three. GREAT SON (11) has filled a minor placing at both runs this time in work and looks close to a maiden win, the latest effort a second over 1200m at Hanshin Dirt. Pretty smart and gets his chance to break through. STAR FUSION (5) did a fine job on debut last time out, finishing a nose from the winner in second over 1400m at Hanshin Dirt. Plenty of improvement in store and this is a nice fit. KURIKO FALCON (3) has registered two minor placings in a row including the most recent appearance when third over 1200m at Hanshin Dirt. Must be included on the strength of that form. SUNRISE ROY (7) was in the firing line on the turn and finished second last time over 1150m at Fukushima Dirt, beaten one length. Will trim down following recent racing. Placed to advantage so expect another bold run.
