Comments

Worked home into second here last start, beaten three lengths by Mishiro Way after having some work to do as favourite. The Morioka Dirt third prior was honest enough, though he was beaten just over seven lengths by Sol Estrella and lacked a sharper turn of foot. His Mizusawa record is a major stabiliser and he maps to race handy, but he looks more a genuine place chance than the one to beat.

Expected Settling Position: Midfield

Comments

Finished sixth here last start, beaten nine lengths by Mishiro Way at long odds after settling back and making no real impression. His Morioka fifth before that was also plain, beaten seven lengths by Silver Spade. Two wins at this track and distance are a positive, but recent form says he needs a much stronger finish to trouble these.

Comments

Produced the right response here last start, sitting close and letting down quickly to beat Shimasan Black by three lengths in soft fashion. That followed a Morioka Dirt third when well supported but only holding ground late. His season has been productive and Yuri Takahashi has a strong record on him, so another positive showing is expected if he repeats that Mizusawa performance.

Comments

Settled rearward and finished fifth here last start, beaten eight and a half lengths by Mishiro Way at long odds. The run prior was weaker again, finishing second last in 3yo+ B2 grade at Morioka Dirt and beaten over 16 lengths by Kurinatchi. Track-and-trip form and the Yu Suzuki record offer some support, but recent efforts leave a sizeable gap to bridge.

Comments

Kept lifting to score by a nose from Tovarisch here last start as favourite, backing up a solid Morioka Dirt second behind Good Day Silence. He is a proven older gelding rather than an improver, but eleven wins and eight places from 41 starts at this track and distance make the setup hard to fault. The narrow last-start margin is the only reservation; the overall profile is strong.

Comments

Returns from a two-month freshening after an eighth at Morioka Dirt in 3yo+ C1 company, beaten eight and a half lengths by Kurinatchi after giving away a big start and never threatening. His previous Mizusawa second over 1400m was much better, beaten half a length by Win Cha Cha. The seasonal record is strong, but being unplaced in nine runs at this distance is a clear concern.

1600m

Comments

Battled into third here last start, beaten five and a half lengths by Mishiro Way after starting as only an outside chance in betting. Two back, he was sixth in 3yo+ B2 grade at Morioka Dirt, beaten seven lengths by Kurinatchi at big odds. His Mizusawa mile record is reliable for minor money, but he needs more than durability to turn that form into a win.

Expected Settling Position: Off Midfield

Comments

Fought strongly when second over 1400m here last week, beaten a head by Liberte at long odds, which was a sharp lift on her Morioka Dirt sixth over 1200m. She drops to 50kg and has won three times at Mizusawa, so the light weight gives her another chance to run well. The rise to 1600m is the main question, making her a place hope rather than a confident winning push.

Comments

Worked home evenly for third here last start, beaten just over four lengths by Sanei Brave after being near the top of betting. His Morioka Dirt seventh before that was ordinary, beaten eight and a half lengths by Plover in 3yo+ B1B2 company. Three wins at this track and distance keep him relevant, but the latest result still leaves him needing a lift against stronger winning hopes.

Comments

Returns from a three-month break after finishing seventh at Morioka Dirt in 3yo+ B2 grade, beaten over 14 lengths by Mishiro Way after failing to come into the race. He had earlier run second here behind Break Bounds, though was beaten six lengths after trying hard on speed. Track and distance figures are sound, but this first-up task demands a major rebound.

Comments

Returns from a one-month freshening after being beaten a head by El Professor at Morioka in 3yo+ B2 company when heavily supported into very short odds-on territory. The run prior was emphatic, beating Olopatadine by four lengths over 1600m at Morioka. Her overall strike profile, Mizusawa mile form and Masatoshi Yamamoto record make her the clearest winning reference, despite the distance query noted.
