Comments

Worked home only fairly when fourth at Mizusawa last week, beaten seven and a half lengths by Annindofu at generous odds. That was below the level of his Morioka Dirt win the start prior, where he was a well-supported favourite and beat Meisho Yufuin by a length and a half over 1200m. The rider record is a plus, but the 1400m remains a fair query, so he profiles as a place hope rather than a strong winning play.

Comments

Ran third at Mizusawa last week, beaten just over three lengths by Antenitrus after being sent out an odds-on favourite and working home evenly. The run prior was better than the margin suggests, as he made up good ground when fourth behind Uwasano Dekopin. His four wins and seven placings from 23 starts at this distance are a key positive, and he gets another clear chance to convert.

Comments

Produced the right response at Mizusawa last start, leading and beating Bumbun Maru by a length as favourite. That followed a fifth in a 3yo+ B1B2 at Morioka Dirt where he was at long odds and had enough after being in contention. He has two wins and three placings from nine starts at 1400m, and if he finds the same rhythm early, he sets a solid benchmark for the field.

Comments

Went very close at Mizusawa last week, finishing second to Antenitrus and beaten just under a length after being pipped late. That was a clear lift on her prior fifth behind Uwasano Dekopin, when she was unwanted in the market and beaten eight and a half lengths. She also beat T O Renoir last week and has a good track-and-distance record, but the winning case still needs one more step.

Comments

Held his form with a third at Mizusawa last week, though he was beaten just over five lengths by Annindofu after tracking the speed and only working home fairly. The stronger piece of evidence is his previous win here, when he fought hard to beat Primo Joker by half a length near the top of betting. He has beaten T O Renoir recently and remains a sound each-way chance if the finish is more decisive.

Finished third to Party Bell at Mizusawa last start, beaten just under three lengths after settling back, and that followed a second in a 3yo+ B2 over 1600m at Morioka Dirt. He is a veteran with plenty of racing behind him, but two wins and four placings from 19 starts at this track and distance give him a base to work from. The recent record points more to minor money than a win.

Comments

Failed to quicken when fifth at Mizusawa last week, beaten nine lengths by Annindofu at big odds. His previous ninth behind Party Bell was weaker again, with the margin over 18 lengths after fading late. He has won at this track and distance, so the setup is not completely foreign, but his current form leaves him needing a marked turnaround.

Lifted last start when second to Party Bell at Mizusawa, beaten just over a length after just failing to hang on near the top of an open market. The concern is the run before, where she was second last in a 3yo+ B1 at Morioka Dirt and beaten over 12 lengths. Her jockey record is strong and she has placed here often enough, but the overall profile still asks for another step.

Comes off a determined Mizusawa win, beating Logi Mambo by a head after starting near the top of betting. That backed up a sound Morioka Dirt third behind Fairial Gift, where he was beaten just under two lengths at generous odds. Two wins and three placings from ten starts at this track and distance add substance, and his current consistency makes him a genuine winning threat again.

Made some improvement when fourth to Party Bell at Mizusawa last start, but was still beaten six and a half lengths as an outside chance in betting. The start prior was tougher to recommend, finishing last in a 3yo+ B2 at Morioka Dirt and beaten over 11 lengths. Being unplaced in all twelve starts this season underlines the task, and others bring stronger recent form.

Bounced back strongly at Mizusawa last start, coming from a rearward position to beat Positive Spin by just over a length near the top of betting. That was a clear contrast to his previous seventh in a 3yo+ COND at Morioka, where he was beaten nine and a half lengths at big odds. He is proven at the distance, but needs to show last start was the new level rather than a one-off spike.

Won at Mizusawa last week, beating Tirage by just under a length at long odds and carrying 50kg, which she keeps here. That victory did come straight after a second-last finish behind Uwasano Dekopin, where she was well beaten after settling just off the lead. Her track-and-distance win is respected, but the profile remains patchy enough to demand caution in this stronger discussion.
