Wakanosato will miss the coming basho which starts this Sunday,, it has 
been announced today. The perrenial sekiwake  injured his right knee 
last basho and dropped out on day 5 . He will be in Juryo when he 
hopefully returns in November.

Yokozuna Asashouryuu went for degeiko at Dewanoumi beya, where he 
trained with Futenou, Tamanoshima and others. He had 16 bouts, no 
results given. Ozekis Hakuhou and Tochiazuma were there as well, but 
there was no interaction between them. " My neck is much better now, 
thank God. I'm able to  do some Sumo..", he said after the session. 
Later, he sprayed water on his back with a hose, and was in good 
spirits. He even compared his biceps to Hakuhou's, and asked the 
reporters who's was bigger..
Hakuhou had 13 bouts against Futenou and Takamisakari, winning 12, but 
the quality was unsatisfactory.
"I did manage to get the feel in some matches..", he said. Asked why he 
avoided  borrowing the Yokozuna's chest, he said, " The Yokozuna is 
still injured, so.."
