Nagoya Race 4 - Race 4 - 1500
Sparse form across the field, so preference leans to those with recent Nagoya exposure. JUN ORLEANS (4) was 7th here over 1500m on 8 May and can build from a soft draw. FLORISTAN (5) also comes off that 1500m race at the track, finishing 8th, and maps to get a similar run from barrier 5. QUEEN'S ROSE (6) struggled on heavy going when 12th here over 1500m on 23 Apr but can improve back on better ground. NOBLE TREASURE (3) drops back from 1700m after racing handy before fading to 10th at Fukushima and is in the mix at this trip.
