Keen speed battle, with Chuwa Kris S, Feel Awesome and Red Bob prominent. TAGANO MAKASIH YA (9) battled on well to hold second last start over 1800m at Hanshin Dirt, beaten one length. This looks a sterner test than last time but on his best form he is good enough to take this out. RED BOB (5) showed good early pace over 1900m at Chukyo Dirt when resuming last time and kept going to score by 6 lengths. Should be prominent again from the low draw. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he has the ability to mix it with them. CHUWA KRIS S (7) ran below expectations last time after being prominent on the corner at Nakayama Dirt, finishing 11th and beaten 12 lengths starting at $3.20. Goes up a rung or two but he is good enough to take this out. MIRAIENO KAGI (2) ran a better race last start, finishing 5.5 lengths away in sixth over 1800m at Nakayama Dirt. Best efforts measure up so worth another chance.
