Morioka Race 8

1600

Prize Money: $10,877

TAIKI COURAGE (5) has been thereabouts lately without being able to break through, the latest effort a second at this track over 1600m. Looks all set to grab that well-deserved win. SALT ROCK (2) finished 4.5 lengths away in sixth last time out over 1400m at this track after being in the firing line on the bend a week ago. Steps up in distance today. Takanori Yoshimoto who has two wins when partnering stays on. Sure to run well. BLAIRII (9) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a fifth over 1600m at Morioka. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot return to winning ways. MONTSAINT IL VENTO (3) has been out of the winner's list for a long time, last start finishing fifth at this track over 1600m. Best figures measure up nicely. Should be about the money.

Most recently second last of 9 at Kanazawa on July 27 over 1500m, 19 len behind Neo Abby carrying 57kg at $121.80. Before that ran last of 9 at Kanazawa on July 1 over 1500m, 44 len behind Al Satwa with 57kg at $241. Might just find this lot a bit smart.

Form hard to fault. Most recently raced on the pace when 2nd of 9 at this track on August 5 over 1600m, 1.0 len behind Yamanin Billow with 56kg at $1.80. The race before that raced on speed throughout when 2nd of 8 at this track on July 20 over 1600m, neck behind Yamanin Baltoro carrying 56kg at $2. Capable of a strong showing.
