Solid tempo from Sparkle Joy, Piston Boy and Nihonpiro Carat battling for the lead in a high-pressure contest. KANEKOME FAMILY (13) was in the firing line on the turn and ran a better race last start to finish a close second over 1200m at Chukyo Dirt after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Likely improver with strong prospects. NIHONPIRO CARAT (5) finished second when resuming from a spell last start over 1400m at Hanshin Dirt. Likely to feature. PISTON BOY (1) finished 12th two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1200m at Hanshin Dirt, beaten 1.5 lengths. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. PASSING SHOWER (2) returned from a spell eight weeks ago when he was beaten 5.5 lengths into seventh over 1200m at Hanshin Dirt. Fitter so expect a better run this time.
