Nakayama Race 5 - Maiden Race
NISHINO HINOTORI (10) Ran 4th last start at this venue. Is capable of a resurgence. Should muster plenty of early speed. Should be competitive in this race at a bit of odds. WINTER BREATH (13) Ran on when 2nd beaten by 1L last time at this venue and showing improvement in recent outings. Has the ability to take this out. KING GLORY (2) Displayed a strong effort throughout the race when 3rd beaten by 1L last start at the track and has a good draw. No surprise to see a forward showing and one of the main hopes in this race. VULCAN TESORO (1) Ran on strongly when 3rd beaten by 2 1/2L last run at this venue and has drawn the rails. Has a nice turn of foot. Should go close

Made some ground late when 3rd last run at this venue and has the ideal gate. Expected to be flashing home. Competitive type.

Couldn't maintain the momentum throughout when 3rd last start around here and gets a favourable alley. Has a good chance.
