Nakayama Race 2 - Mdn Race
REGIME CHANGE (12) was well fancied on debut last start and was not far off the mark, finishing second and beaten 1.5 lengths over 1800m at Sapporo. Has upside and can open his account. PRINCIPATUS (2) turned in a good effort on debut 12 weeks ago when one length away in second at Fukushima over 2000m. Has not been to the races since that outing. Handy draw will assist and can feature again. NEURO FIGHTER (4) resumes from a spell of 12 weeks. Could only manage to finish fourth at the latest run over 1800m at Fukushima. Strong winning chance on best figures. KOSAI RIKURI (7) was in contention on the turn and finished third last time over 1800m at this track, beaten 0.6 lengths. Ready to go a couple better.

Raced two times to date. At long odds at debut, 2nd of 12 at Niigata on August 15 over 1800m, 1.75 len behind Piko Berry with 55.0kg at $48.80. Last start gave a sight but was run down late 3rd of 11 at this track on September 5 over 1800m, 0.6 len behind Cosmo Pluie carrying 55.0kg at $7.50. Looks close to a win. Right in the mix again.

Was well-supported at debut, held ground to the line 2nd of 12 at Sapporo on August 16 over 1800m, 1.5 len behind City Of Dream carrying 55.0kg at $2.30. Kept coming but found one better on debut. Can build upon that bright start to his career.
