Nakayama Race 12 - Allowance Race

MIKUNI INSPIRE (11) is a promising galloper who won at his last run before a break ten weeks ago over 2000m at Hakodate. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Will play a major role. GENJI (5) finished second over 2000m at Fukushima at his most recent appearance on July 5. Has found the right race to go one better. NOLAN SUNRISE (8) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago at Kokura. Less impressive last time out when third over 2000m at Chukyo, beaten 5 lengths after being in contention on the bend. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time. CORE (7) was below his best last time when seventh over 2000m at Sapporo, beaten 7 lengths. Has his share of talent and can do a lot better.

Second-up raced behind the speed prior to fading 7th of 13 at Sapporo on August 24 over 2000m, 7 len behind Cosmo Avanza carrying 55.0kg at $11.50.

At the latest run 7th of 16 at Niigata on August 23 over 1800m, 9 len behind Mieno Fairy carrying 55.0kg at $75.30. The race before that crossed from a wide gate to settle just off the pace but gave ground when 2nd of 12 at Morioka on July 22 over 1700m, 4 len behind Uber Strong carrying 54kg at $4.10. Hard to recommend on recent form.
