Nakayama Race 10 - Sobu Stakes

IMHOTEP (1) is a winner of four from six and is unbeaten in three first-up runs. Loves it here and will go close. REVONTULET (8) lines up for the first time since December 24. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 1800m at Niigata Dirt. Has recorded two wins when first up from a break. Should be hard to stop. ACTION PLAN (14) is back at the races for the first time since December 14. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over 1700m at Fukushima Dirt. Has a solid first-up record of two wins and three placings from eight starts. Can make his presence felt. RITUAL (4) strode forward early from his wide draw when resuming last start over 1800m at this track then fought on gamely to finish third. Placed to advantage and can feature in the finish.

Has won previously first-up and resumes here after a break of 11 weeks. Finished off last campaign seventh of 9 at Nagoya December 24 over 2000m, 7 len behind Appealing Look carrying 57kg at $3.10. First up last campaign third of 12 at Niigata Dirt in the LR August 23 over 1800m, 0.6 len behind Jasper Robusto carrying 57.0kg at $4.10. Goes well fresh and won only start course and distance.

Comes here off a 35-day let-up. At the latest run came home strongly from last on the turn; 3rd of 15 at Kokura Dirt on February 1 over 1700m, 1.5 len behind Kotohodo Sayoni with 58.0kg at $13.50. The start before that 10th of 16 at this track on January 11 over 1800m, 6 len behind Kazeno Runner carrying 57.0kg at $12.50. Not far away last time. Worth plenty of thought.
