HSRP NEXUS
I was curious if a separate HSRP Group should be employed for each SVI on a Core Nexus Switch. See below.
Should each Vlan have a separate HSRP instance or would one or two instances for HSRP be adequate for 10 or 20 Vlans??
interface Vlan3
no shutdown
ip address 131.133.134.131/27
ip ospf authentication message-digest
ip ospf message-digest-key 1 md5 3 9125d59c18a9b015
ip router ospf 10 area 0.0.0.0
hsrp version 2
HSRP 3
preempt
priority 120
ip 131.133.134.129
interface Vlan6

You may want to consider migrating to a traditional hierarchy of core --> distribution --> access where you have layer 3 between your core and distribution layers and deploy your gateways on your distribution devices. This is an assumption of your architecture being a collapsed core design where all layer 3/gateway traffic and subnets reside in the core devices of your infrastructure.
You wouldn't generally provide L2 redundancy at the same device for that many VLANs. As Jordan Medlen said, this is usually separated at the distribution layer. This allows the scalability you may require.
To answer the OP's question...
...craigbecks reply does answer that question. Is it the only solution, no, but as far as direct replies, it answers the question. I always look to provide better alternative solutions where they exist, rather than only providing the answer to the question given.

I didn't say Jordan's comment shouldn't be included in a split. In the objection I said:
The correct answer is ID: 39752167
The selected answer was just a supplement to the initial comment I made, so the OP has just selected any comment by me as the answer in order to acknowledge that I was correct and award points.
The points awarded were significantly less than the assist too
