Nakayama Race 5 - Maiden Race
I'M IN (11) Amongst the placegetters when 2nd last time at Tokyo and putting a tidy record together so far. Should jump out and bowl along. No shock to see a win. REPUNIT (9) Inched into 4th last run at Tokyo and showing consistent performance in races. Can take this out. YAMANIN ALEXIS (4) Close to a win last start at Tokyo. Worth an each way bet in this. HACHIMAN (7) Racing as a debutant 3yo by Al Ain for trainer Masatoshi Tsukazaki. Betting is the best guide.

First up today. Odds of $101.00 and weakened to finish 13th last start at Tokyo. Likely to get back in the field. Could not recommend.

Started at $26.00 and made some ground when 5th last run at Tokyo. Might have to make up considerable ground. May find these too slick.

Came on strongly to finish 2nd last time at Tokyo and good career start. Should muster plenty of early speed. Stamps its reason for consideration.

First up. Started $12.00 and clearly outclassed when 12th last run at Fukushima but was a debutant last start. Likely to get back in the run. Racing over extra ground. Very unlikely.

Fresh after a break. At $81.00 folded up in the straight when 17th last start at Tokyo. Looks completely outclassed.

Back after a break. Started $81.00 and ran 7th last time at Tokyo but having second race start. Has the necessary speed to overcome the wide draw. Rough chance.
