Nagoya Race 5 - Nagoya
FAFROTSKIES (7) Weakened to finish 13th last time at Niigata. Giving another go here. Expecting to settle positively. First start for a new trainer. Tatsuya Watanabe is a key engagement. Underrated. NIKITA (6) Disappointing display when 15th last time at Kyoto. Coming to a new trainer. Has a nice turn of foot. Worth consideration. INSALATA (8) Faded away to finish 11th last start at Tokyo and back in trip. Change in trainer. Expected to be flashing home. Should be competitive in this race at a bit of odds. MEISHO ALMA (10) Lacklustre showing when 15th last time at Niigata but having second race start. Change in trainer. Will be hitting the line strongly. Expect to go close.

Lost ground in the run home when 14th last time at Tokyo but has minimal work to do from the stall. First appearance for a new trainer. Has some claims.

Was nothing special when 10th last start at Niigata but will try to take advantage of the stall. First race for a new trainer. Betting is the best guide.

Started at $201.00 and was well beaten when 14th last start at Niigata and will have to carry extra weight. Coming to a new trainer. Hard to recommend with any confidence.

First up after a break. Started at $301.00 and came in 10th last time at Kyoto. Coming to a new trainer. Expected to settle towards the tail. This looks a tough assignment.
