[Intermediate adjustment]In the Fukushima Kinen, which was the first race last autumn, he finished 5th, but in the previous race, the Chunichi Shimbun Hai, he finished 14th. It seems that there was a reaction to the good run after the break, and Baba in Chukyo didn’t fit. Although he is a delicate horse, he seems to have plenty of energy left in his previous race, so he will go to the Nakayama Gold Cup in the third week. In the middle, he was being cared for in the stable, and on December 25th, which was the first clock, Wood chase was digested 14-14. The clock was mediocre, but on the 28th, he showed great spirit with a wood horse.
[Final race]In spite of the irregular schedule for the year-end and New Year holidays, the final race will be held at Wood on December 31st. He continued on the road with an air of positivity, and on the straight line he quickly changed direction to the saddle-top device and accelerated.
[Opinion]Although he always shows up well in practice, it is good to see that he is showing brisk movements without any atmosphere that seems to drag on from the big defeat in the previous race. Despite being delicate, the horse’s body is well maintained, and the spirit is greater than that of the previous run. Nakayama Baba in winter, where clocks are required, seems to be suitable, and there is plenty of possibility for a hard run.
