About

Nakamura, a 3yo trained by J P Murtagh, contested the Cork R2 Down Syndrome Centre Cork Rated Race. He is by Kodi Bear out of Ahab and has recorded two victories. His finest achievement came on 30 Sep 2025 at Cork, where he captured the $35,002 Hcp. Punters have found him rewarding; backing him throughout his career would have yielded a 31% return on investment.
