Racing in Japan is happening without the public again.

Sunday at Nakayama a race with a name longer than the list of contenders is the feature – the Hochi Hai Yayoi Shi Deep Impact Kinen!  The "Deep Impact Kinen" has been added to what was already a long name.  It's G2 for 3yos over 2000m with 11 going to post.

Satono Flag, appropriately by Deep Impact, is on top here on 2.5 with Yutaka Take on board.  Wakea is not far behind on 2.9 with Christophe Lemaire riding.  Authority is by Orfevre with the dam a daughter of Cesario and Lyle Hewitson, on a temp licence to ride in Japan, is the jockey and they have a quote of 5.5.  Our roughie here is Black Hole by the wonderful Gold Ship who is on 12.0.
