1600m - 1700m

Comments

Led and boxed on for third over 1600m at Mizusawa last start, beaten just under six lengths by Dionis after being an outside chance in the betting. That followed a head win in 3yo B1 grade at Morioka Dirt, so the form is not empty. The drop to 1400m helps, but four unplaced runs at this track and distance leave her needing a sharper finish.

Comments

Was always well back when sixth in 3yo+ B1 grade at Mizusawa last start, beaten over 10 lengths by Tsurumaru Violet at big odds. Her previous Kochi fifth was also well held, beaten over 12 lengths after giving away too much start. She has won at the distance, but current form and market profile make this a difficult assignment.

Comments

Worked into third over 1200m at Morioka Dirt last start, beaten eight lengths by Shonan Nazca after having plenty to do from the back. The prior run was plain when unwanted in betting, but her broader profile at 1400m is strong with six wins from 12 starts. Ryo Takamatsu also knows her well, and the return to a more suitable trip gives her a genuine winning platform if she is close enough when it matters.

Comments

Returns from a five-week let-up after producing a dominant 3yo+ B1 win over 1600m at Morioka Dirt, beating Break Bounds by six lengths when near the top of betting. She had also scored easily in 3yo+ B2 grade two weeks earlier, and her Mizusawa 1400m record is excellent. Carries 56kg after 52kg last time, but current form, track-and-trip strength and Reika Sekimoto's record aboard keep her high in calculations.

Comments

Disappointed as favourite when seventh over 850m at Mizusawa last start, beaten seven and a half lengths by Tiberius without a clear excuse. The run prior was sound, working home evenly for second over 1200m at Morioka Dirt at generous odds. She is far better judged on her track-and-trip credentials and rider record, but a bounce-back is required before pushing her higher.

Comments

Was plain over 2000m at Morioka Dirt last start, finishing eighth and beaten over 13 lengths by Love Love Pyro after failing to build momentum in the straight. Two back, she beat Meisho Mahiro by a neck at Morioka Dirt at long odds, which ties her into one of the stronger form references. Back in trip is a query, but one win and two placings from four Mizusawa starts give her minor-money appeal.

Comments

Made it another decisive win at Mizusawa last start, scoring by nine lengths in 3yo+ B2 grade from Laser Speckle after being heavily backed into very short odds-on. Her previous Morioka Dirt win was also soft, beating Thumbs Up by four lengths in the same grade. Eight wins from 14 starts, a perfect Mizusawa record and three wins from four at 1400m make her the clear benchmark despite meeting a deeper field.

Comments

Returns from a three-month break after a well-held last at Nagoya over 920m, where she travelled handy before weakening behind Golden Ring. Her previous eighth in 3yo+ A6 grade was also beaten over 10 lengths. One win at 1400m gives a minor reference point, but recent form says she must improve sharply first-up at Mizusawa.

Comments

Returns from a six-month break after ending last campaign with a ninth at Mizusawa over 1600m, beaten a long way by Suzuka Goketsu when unwanted in the market. She had also been beaten over 12 lengths at Nagoya at huge odds and remains unplaced from four starts this season. Prior track-and-trip claims are not enough on their own; she needs a genuine form reset.

Comments

Was only fair through the line when sixth over 2000m at Morioka Dirt last start, beaten just over nine lengths by Love Love Pyro after being unwanted in the market. Her fourth to Kitano Bride two back was much better, beaten a length and a half after picking up late. Three wins and three placings from eight tries at the Mizusawa 1400m are enough to keep her in the minor mix.

850m - 1200m

Comments

Kept kicking when second over 850m at Mizusawa last start, beaten just under two lengths by Taisei Warrior after being near the top of betting. That followed a four-length 3yo+ B1 win over 1000m at Morioka Dirt as favourite, so her form is holding. Ten wins and 13 places from 41 starts underline her reliability, though the rise to 1400m is the test for win purposes.

Comments

Returns from a two-month freshening after being beaten a neck by Kitano Bride over 1800m at Morioka Dirt as a dominant odds-on favourite. She had earlier won a 3yo+ B3 at Kawasaki by seven lengths from Canal Gale, and her 1400m record is excellent. First look at Mizusawa and the beaten-favourite tag keep the assessment measured despite the strong raw numbers.
