Nagoya Race 7 - Race 7 - 1500
SECOND NUTS (2) maps as the one to beat fourth-up after a Nagoya 1500m win on 15 Sep (barrier 2) by 0.75L carrying 55kg at $4.2, and she owns a strong track/distance record. ARK LEON (4) is a danger after a career-best 2nd at this trip here on 1 Oct, beaten 0.5L at $126 from barrier 3. ANGEL RING (7) has 1500m winning form at Nagoya (30 Jul) and comes off a solid Sonoda 1400m 3rd on 17 Sep, suggesting she stays well. DENALI (1) resumes second-up from the inside draw and was a debut 900m winner here on 31 Jul; barrier 1 is a notable improvement from gate 10 last time.

Debut winner at Nagoya over 900m (31 Jul) from barrier 10, scoring by 0.75L at $5.5 with Keigo Oohata aboard, and he draws the inside alley this time. Second-up after 75 days and rising 600m, with an unbeaten records at track and with this jockey/trainer combination. From barrier 1 at 56kg, he maps for a soft run and looks to handle the step in trip on what he’s shown so far.

Progressed to win at Nagoya over 1500m last start (55kg, SP 4.2) from barrier 2, scoring by 0.75L over Leman No Soyokaze. That followed a solid 2nd over 920m (SP 13), and she now draws barrier 2 again with Souichi Katou maintaining a 2:1-1 record on the mare. Fourth-up and proven at the track/distance, she profiles as a reliable contender.

Has solid Nagoya credentials with a (6:0-1-2) track record and (4:0-1-1) at 1500m, and draws well in barrier 3 after a tougher run from 7 when 6th by 10.25L on heavy 28 days ago. Earlier 1500m form reads better, including 2nd by 1.5L (SP 7) on 15 Jul and a subsequent 3rd (SP 3.5), so a return to a kinder gate can help him hold a position. Respectable each-way claims if he reproduces his mid-July efforts.

Found sharp improvement at Nagoya last start, running 2nd of 12 over 1500m (56kg) beaten 0.5L at $126, and he draws barrier 4 here after jumping from 3 there. That was also his first run for Kazuo Fujigasaki and Takahiro Imai, and he returns to the same trip 13 days later. Fourth-up and with proven track/distance stats (1:0-1-0), he looks to have a suitable setup.

Returned to Nagoya 13 days ago and finished 10th of 12 over 1500m (52kg, SP 51) after winning the same trip on 3 Sep (55kg, SP 3.8) over Viola Riku. She now drops to 52kg and draws barrier 5, and her Nagoya 1500m record this season reads (3:1-0-0), so a rebound is possible with a cleaner run.

Proven at Nagoya 1500m with a July win (55kg, SP 2.8) and a solid 2nd on 3 Sep on heavy going, beaten 1.5L by Blue On Pink at SP 29. Forgive the 10th of 10 on 16 Sep when trailing home 42.75L on heavy; draws barrier 6 now and stays at 55kg, so a rebound into the finish is within reach.

Proven at the track and trip with a 1500m Nagoya win two starts before a 3rd at Sonoda over 1400m, beaten 2.25L by Bhadra at $34. Steps back up 100m and draws barrier 7 again, with 55kg and a rider change to Yuusuke Tsutsui. Solid track/distance stats suggest she can be competitive with a similar run.

Comes off a narrow 0.1L win over 1500m at Monbetsu on 20 Aug (55kg, SP 2.05), beating Miravie, and is unbeaten at the trip (1:1-0-0). He resumes after 55 days and rises to 56kg, with recent barriers 6/1 now shifting to gate 8; consistent juvenile form includes 2nd and 3rd over 1200m earlier in the prep. Solid claims if he reproduces that latest win at the longer trip.

Impressive debut winner at Nagoya over 900m (24 Aug), scoring by 3L at $3.75 with 56kg on firm ground for this jockey-trainer pairing. Second-up now after 51 days and stretching 600m in trip to 1500m from barrier 9. Progression in distance is the question, but his winning platform and continuity of rider and trainer give him a solid base.
