Nagoya

ARDEST (5) Was competitive when 2nd last time around here. Showing positive results since resuming from a break. Should go close. GOURMAND (8) Was very impressive when winning by a margin of 4L last time at this venue and strong performer at this distance in the past. In good racing form this preparation. Must respect in this event. SATONO PATHOS (3) Competitive effort when 2nd last start around here. Should be swooping on the field late. Can measure up to this company. J L HARBOR (12) Ran well when 3rd last run here but hoping that the added weight won't hurt. Exotics and place chance.
