Nagoya Race 4 - Nagoya 3Yo
All of these drop in grade off JRA level. BELLA CENTAURUS (4) is back after a break of 12 weeks. At the last run before the layoff he finished ninth over 1400m at Kyoto Dirt. Can make a winning return. NOBLE SNIPER (5) hasn't featured at his last two runs, the latest when tenth at Nakayama Dirt. Has struggled on the JRA circuit recently but is better placed here. SHINZEN AIKA (1) returns from a spell of 11 weeks and is having her first run for a new yard. Finished 14th at Kokura over 1200m when first-up last time in work. Worth plenty of thought in this line-up. LUST (7) is having his second run back from a break after he failed to threaten first up over 1200m at Nakayama Dirt. Solid contender here.

Returns from a 37-day let-up. At the latest run 12th of 14 at Chukyo Dirt on March 28 over 1800m, 22 len behind Ask Du Champ with 54.0kg at $330.10. The start before that ran last of 13 at Hanshin Dirt on March 22 over 1800m, 19 len behind Arthur Barows with 54.0kg at $369.30. Cannot be ruled out despite a lacklustre effort last time.

Jumped as a despised roughie at debut, ran last of 15 at Nakayama Dirt on March 22 over 1800m, 35 len behind Eagle Rock carrying 52.0kg at $407.70. Might need more time based on that poor debut.
