Track Notes

Course Summary

Right-handed outer-loop sprint with a fast downhill opening section and Nakayama’s steep uphill finish. Early pace gets pushed hard by the descent, but the final 310m demands enough Power and Guts to survive the climb.

Fun Facts

• Lord Kanaloa won back-to-back Sprinters Stakes here in 2012 and 2013.
• The first half runs downhill, making early pacing extremely fast.
