Nakayama Race 6 - Maiden Race
PIECE UNIQUE (17) turned in a solid run when resuming last start over this course and distance, finishing third and beaten only 0.6 lengths. Lightly raced with plenty of scope for improvement. Should feature in the finish. SATONO STARLIGHT (13) looked good at her only appearance 11 weeks ago over 2000m at this track, finishing third and beaten 2.75 lengths. Likely improver and is among the main hopes. EVER CHANTY (2) wasn't far off maiden success before an eight-month break, finishing the prep with a minor placing at Sapporo. First try at this longer trip. Strong winning chance on best figures. EN VEDETTE (9) closed last prep three months ago when she finished fifth over 2000m at this track. Expected to feature while fresh.
