Quick question on front wheel bearing removal

It's been a very long time since I've done a front wheel bearing on a subaru so my memory is a tad rusty. My search didn't answer this particular question which is, do I push the bearing race inboard or outboard? I'm using a hub tamer tool and want to make sure that I know which way the bearing race has to come out! The snap ring on the inside (toward the engine) has been removed so I'm thinking the bearing race goes toward the inside. But for some reason, this feels wrong. Various YouTube vids show the race being pushed out toward the inside so my guess is that the SVX follows suit.

Anyway, thanks for any assistance.
