Answer

Ruling: You cannot react to a standard move with Flash because standard moves do not create a chain. However, once the showdown begins and you have focus, you can cast Ride the Wind to move a unit from your base to that battlefield.

Sequence:

  • Opponent declares a standard move to a battlefield (cannot be reacted to)
  • Showdown begins at that battlefield
  • When you gain focus during the showdown, you can play Ride the Wind to move a unit from your base to that battlefield

Nuances:

  • If a unit has a move trigger that creates a chain (like Traveling Merchant), you could react with Flash before the showdown begins
  • Ride the Wind is an action spell, so you specifically need focus (not just priority) to cast it
