Plenty of pace with Feb Kiranah and Meiner Sahara leading from Rhein Garuda. MEINER SAHARA (6) displayed plenty of early toe over 1400m at this track last time and dug deep to score by 5 lengths. Can play a major role. FEB KIRANAH (8) was fifth last time out over 1300m here following a win at this track at the previous outing. Finds a suitable race and can go on to take this out. ALL SMART (1) finished out of the money when fourth in a 1400m contest at this track four weeks ago. Yet to miss the placings in two starts over this course and distance and Hiroki Yamashita gets the best out of this nine-year-old entire. In the mix. RHEIN GARUDA (2) last appeared when he finished tenth over 1150m at Fukushima Dirt on November 2. Lines up today for the first time for trainer Tadayoshi Ikeda. Worth plenty of thought.
