Nakayama Race 5 - Maiden Race
WINTER BREATH (13) has been in the money two times including last start on March 7 when second over 2200m at this track. Yet to miss the top-three in two runs at this course. Has the ability to take this out. KING GLORY (2) was prominent at the corner and ran a better race last start to finish a close third over 2200m at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. MODERATE GALE (11) resumes from a spell of nine weeks. Could only manage to finish fourth at the latest run over 2200m at this track. Among the chances while fresh. NISHINO HINOTORI (10) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 2200m at this track, beaten 1.5 lengths into fourth. Best efforts measure up so worth another chance.
