Nakayama Race 2 - Mdn Race
EIFER MARINE (10) was beaten for early speed on debut last start but hit the line nicely to get up for second over 1600m at Niigata. Breaks from a wide draw but he is worth following up. YODONO PREMIUM (9) will find this a little easier than his third on debut four weeks ago, beaten 4 lengths at the end of 1600m at Niigata. Will benefit from that experience so he will prove tough to beat. PREMA MADONNA (1) debuted seven weeks ago when she finished eighth over 1600m at Niigata, beaten 3 lengths. Improver who can feature in the finish. INTO THE BLUE (2) is a promising maiden who looks close to a win, finishing fourth on debut then placing over 1800m at Sapporo last time out. Well placed and can feature in the finish. Something for the Multiples: IN TO THE BLUE (2)
