Nakayama Race 11 - The Nikkei Sho(G2)

URBAN CHIC (7) was beaten just over three lengths in the Arima Kinen won by Regaleira over 2500m at this track at his last appearance three-and-a-half months ago. Christophe Lemaire, who has scored on him twice, retains the mount. Leading contender in this easier contest. CHEVALIER ROSE (13) resumes. Raced just twice last prep and put together back-to-back wins together at Kyoto and this track, both at Grade 2 level. Yuichi Kitamura was the pilot both times. Expecting another bold showing. MATENRO LEO (2) wound up strongly last time out to finish 0.8 lengths adrift in second over 2200m at this track in the Grade 2 American Jockey Club Cup. Should camp just off the leaders. One of the main contenders. LIBYAN GLASS (15) was unwanted in betting last start but performed beyond expectations when beaten 0.8 lengths into second over 2200m in the G2 Kyoto Kinen. In the mix.
