Nakayama Race 11 - The Fairy Stakes(G3)
GHILLIES' BALL (12) wasted no time getting off the mark as favourite on debut over 1600m at this track three-and-a-half months ago and has not appeared since. Leading rider stays aboard and expected to go close again. PIED DU LAPIN (2) was less than a length from the winner in second at Tokyo on debut before showing the benefit of that race experience when an impressive winner over 1600m at Tokyo last start. Has a low draw and can measure up again. SAINT ANTOINE (9) is a progressive three-year-old filly who resumes from a break of 12 weeks, her last appearance being a win over 1400m at Tokyo. Has won when fresh from a spell in the past. Has upside and bold showing expected fresh. NORTHERN TITAN (7) is back from a spell of three months. Won on debut at the only appearance last prep, scoring in a 1600m contest at Tokyo by a neck. On speed and a determined winner on debut. Can measure up again.
