Nakayama Race 4 - Maiden Race
BLUE THERMAL (6) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when second over 1800m at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects. L'ARLESIENNE (16) showed ability at her only start back on December 27 when second over 1600m at Nakayama. Tricky draw to overcome but is among the leading chances. RATIONAL POINT (13) has not raced since her debut back on November 29 when she finished seventh over 1600m at Tokyo. Will be better for that run and is expected to go well. RUMBERA (8) could only manage to finish sixth, beaten 7 lengths, after being in contention on the turn at her latest appearance over 1800m at Kyoto. Among the chances in what looks a nice race for her.
