Race 7 1600m Track: |

|---|---|---|---|---|

Reasonable tempo with Santa Ana Wind probably leading but a few others should keep her honest. SANTA ANA WIND (7) turned in a sound effort last time but found one better at Urawa over 1500m, beaten 1.5 lengths. Cherry-ripe now. Top chance. NARINO DREAM (13) wound up strongly last time out to finish 1.5 lengths adrift in second over 1400m at Kawasaki. Among the leading chances. CAPELLA STAR (3) finished sixth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 2000m at Urawa, beaten 5.5 lengths. Taking on a better line-up this time but he deserves plenty of thought. THINKING FURSA (8) was in contention on the bend and finished third last time over 1800m at this track, beaten 4.5 lengths. Will trim down following recent racing. Likely improver with solid prospects.
