Good tempo expected with Hierba Buena, Satono Rush and Don Kronos rolling forward. SAMMARU BOUQUET (4) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1200m at Niigata Dirt, beaten 23 lengths. Strips fitter and can find the winners' list. HIERBA BUENA (1) was well fancied last start over 1400m at this track when third, beaten 4.5 lengths. Shuji Akaoka who has scored on him three times retains the mount. Well placed and should be in the finish. ELEGANT WINK (6) was safely held when resuming last start over 2880m at Nakayama, finishing 13th and beaten 18 lengths. Has winning claims on best figures. SATONO RUSH (5) settled well back then found the line nicely to finish fourth, beaten 6 lengths, over this journey at this track last time out. Should prove tough to hold out.
