Nagoya Race 12 - Race 12 - 2000
IDOL EYES (4) turned in a fine effort to win by 2 lengths at this track and distance last time out to make it two-for-two this prep. Taking on a better line-up this time but she is good enough to play a major role. SWITCHBLADE (2) is a distance specialist who has been hard to fault, scoring two in a row before hitting the frame at the last two including a second most recently over 2000m at this track when he was prominent throughout. Tackling a deeper field this time but he is up to the task. RAGING THRUST (9) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when third over 1500m at this track after being prominent from the outset. Will be handy in running despite the tricky draw. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. LA LA EFFORT (3) scored last start at this track to make it two wins from two starts this campaign. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Should give backers a sight.
