From the wide draw Run Windy can cross and set up a solid tempo. ASTER RUHUNA (8) has been in the placings at her last two starts, finishing third last time when she was always up in the leading division over 1200m at Chukyo Dirt. Best figures measure up. Will stalk the leaders and is sure to run well. AMERICAN BIKINI (11) resumed over 1200m at Chukyo Dirt last time out and finished second, beaten a neck. Overall record is sound when second-up and should be fitter with a run under the belt. Will take catching despite the wide draw. PEARL FRONT (6) made a strong late bid only to just miss last start over 1000m at Sapporo Dirt. First try this trip but hard to knock the recent form. CENTAUR BEAST (13) resumes and was well off best before a break. Has a great record over the course and distance. Should be prominent and can get the job done fresh.
