PIENA FEVRE (8) is ready to win after another minor placing last start, finishing second over 2200m at Nakayama when he was always up in the leading division. Looks well placed so expect another big run. HEAVEN WIND (3) is a five-start maiden who has been in the money two times, Could only manage 11th last time out over 2000m at Fukushima. Has been in the frame at both appearances at this venue. Has the ability to take this out. VERNALLY (7) will find this a little easier than her third on debut eight weeks ago, beaten 2 lengths at the end of 1800m at Nakayama. Promising type with improvement to come so she should be in the finish. MEINER TRAUM (9) produced another moderate effort last start when 5 lengths from the winner in sixth over 2000m at Nakayama at the second run back from a spell. Has his share of ability and is a top-three prospect.
