From a wide alley Viv Air should slide across with Major Quality on the inside. RUTONWAJI (3) kicked off for his new trainer last start when beaten 3 lengths into third over 1500m at this track. Better for the first-up run and is worth following up. MAJOR QUALITY (1) improved last start but found one better over 2000m at this track, beaten 2 lengths after being prominent at the turn. Can progress again third up so has strong prospects. VIV AIR (12) was solid when fourth last time out over 2000m at Kawasaki. That followed a win at Kawasaki at the previous outing. He is one of the chief contenders. NERAIUCHI (7) has accrued five minor placings from seven runs this preparation. Turned in another good performance last start when third over 1600m at Kawasaki. Must be included.
