Nakayama Race 10 - Shiwasu Stakes(L)

T O PASSWORD (8) is a promising type who hasn't raced since finishing 2.75 lengths away in seventh over 2000m in the G3 Sirius Stakes at Hanshin Dirt on September 27. Has a very strong record first-up including three wins. Will push forward and go close. ACTION PLAN (11) closed off strongly last start to get up for third, beaten a long neck, over 1700m at Fukushima Dirt when returning from a break. Has a strong record here at this journey with four wins from 10 starts. Among the leading chances. BRIAN SENSE (14) is struggling to break through but hasn't been far away, the latest finishing a 7 length sixth in the G3 Miyako Stakes at Kyoto Dirt. Rates well and can do much better this time. MIKKI NUCHIBANA (12) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1900m at Kyoto Dirt, beaten 6 lengths after being in contention on the turn. Fitter so anticipating a better run this time.

Racing second-up today. Last start raced behind the speed prior to fading 8th of 16 at Kyoto Dirt on November 22 over 1900m, 6 len behind Meursault with 59.0kg at $17.20. At only start last preparation came from midfield; 3rd of 14 at Sapporo Dirt in the G3 Elm Stakes on August 9 over 1700m, 3.5 len behind Perriere with 57.0kg at $41.80. Long time since a win but goes very well when second-up. Sure to run well.

Second-up. Comes off a 36-day let-up. First-up after three months raced on the pace before fading ran last of 16 at Kyoto Dirt on November 8 over 1200m, 9 len behind Peptide Yamato carrying 52.0kg at $22.30. Previously second-up 10th of 13 at Kyoto Dirt on February 10 over 1200m, 5.5 len behind Peptide Yamato carrying 56.0kg at $2.70. Fitter but must improve sharply.

Comes here off a 35-day let-up. Most recently 6th of 15 at Kyoto Dirt in the G3 Miyako Stakes on November 9 over 1800m, on a slow track; 7 len behind W Heart Bond carrying 57.0kg at $22.30. The start before that 5th of 14 at Hanshin Dirt in the G3 Sirius Stakes on September 27 over 2000m, 2.25 len behind Ho O Roulette carrying 58.5kg at $19.70. This easier. Capable of a better run.

Third-up today and won third-up in the past. Resuming second last of 14 at Kyoto Dirt on October 26 over 1800m, 12 len behind Shigeru Shogun with 58.0kg at $20.20. Second-up 6th of 16 at Tokyo Dirt in the G3 Musashino Stakes on November 15 over 1600m, 5.5 len behind Luxor Cafe with 57.0kg at $298.80. Better than that recent ordinary performance suggests.

Second run back. First-up after four months raced on the pace before fading second last of 18 at Tokyo in LR on November 29 over 1600m, 12 len behind Mikki Gorgeous carrying 55.0kg at $163.30. Previously second-up second last of 12 at Hakodate on July 13 over 1800m, 11 len behind Keiai Sena with 57.0kg at $15. Fitter but must improve sharply.
