Nakayama

PERSUADE (3) Caught the eye when 2nd beaten by 1L last start at Niigata and hard to fault at the distance. Has a nice turn of foot. Can measure up to this company. LOISTAA (11) Disappointing run when 12th last start at Chukyo but solid career start. Will be trying to topple them late. Right in this. SAPPHIRE TESORO (5) Back from a spell. Finished hard to win last start at Tokyo and honest performer putting a tidy record together. No surprise to see a forward showing and one of the main hopes in this race. FEEL AWESOME (6) Ran 2nd last run at Niigata. Should be going forward early. Key player.
