Indigo Black and Academia to battle for the leading role. REALIZE CAMION (12) is back after a break of eight months. Looking to emulate his win at Sapporo Dirt at the beginning of last prep adding to the strong first-up record. Will be very tough to beat. ACADEMIA (14) is a promising entire yet to miss the frame after five starts, including three wins. Is at the races for the first time since he was successful over 2100m at this track on February 22. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Sure to be in the finish. GYLFI (2) raced in the leading division and kept going to score by one length when resuming last time out over 2000m at Hanshin Dirt. Finds a tougher race but he has the talent to test this line-up. LOFTY STORY (5) showed good early dash and raced on the speed last start before fading to finish 1.75 lengths back in fifth over 1800m at Nakayama Dirt. Sure to give a sight.
