Comments

Has been unable to make an impact at his past two, finishing ninth at this track last week behind La La Clochette after settling well back and never looking likely. The start prior at Mizusawa was also plain, beaten over 19 lengths by Gold Jumper as an outsider. His 1400m record is respectable, but current form leaves him with plenty to turn around.

Comments

Was near the top of an open market at Mizusawa last start but finished fourth and was beaten out of sight by Hyakugimaru, which is difficult to overlook. Two back she was a fair fifth behind Pakara Pakara at generous odds. A previous placing at this track offers a small positive, yet she looks more a rough minor hope than a reliable winning option.

Comments

Made a more competitive showing when fourth at Mizusawa last start, beaten seven and a half lengths by Texas Barows at generous odds. Her previous Niigata Mdn run was plain, but she is now fourth-up and should be fitter. The 1400m record is unplaced from three attempts, though this field gives her a clear chance to convert recent improvement into a win.

Comments

Placed at this track last week when second to Miss Melissa over 1200m, but she was a short odds-on favourite and beaten seven lengths after enjoying a good run. The previous Mizusawa fifth was also costly for punters and came by a wide margin. She stays in calculations on the quick back-up, yet her 1400m record keeps the win case qualified.

Comments

Comes through two solid efforts, finishing third at Mizusawa before closing well for fourth at this track last week, beaten three and a half lengths by Glorious Dance. She is proven at 1400m, with four wins and two placings from 16 starts at the distance, and the light weight is again in her favour. With that recent form base, she sets the benchmark.

Comments

Returns from a two-month break after finishing ninth in a Sapporo Dirt Mdn, beaten just over seven lengths by Anima Ray at big odds. The class drop into C2 helps, and his earlier third in a COND at Ohi showed he can hold a spot in this company. Unplaced in three goes around 1400m, so he profiles as a place chance with a clear distance question.

Comments

Produced a better result when third at this track last week behind Glorious Dance, beating M T Top home at long odds, but her overall form remains patchy. The prior Mizusawa run in B2 grade was a distant seventh after making no headway. She has won at this track and distance, so the setup is familiar, but a stronger all-round performance is required.

Comments

Has been holding her form without quite putting the race away, finishing fourth at Mizusawa at each of her past two starts. The stronger of those came behind Pakara Pakara when she had market support and battled on well. Toshiya Yamamoto returning is a positive, and while 1400m is not yet a proven winning trip for her, she has the profile to be in the fight.

Expected Settling Position: Leader

Comments

Has been beaten a long way at consecutive Mizusawa starts, finishing last behind Hyakugimaru after conceding a huge start and never entering the race. The start prior was second last, well beaten by 30 lengths behind Pakara Pakara at big odds. Unplaced from 13 starts overall, she will have to find a level not shown recently.

Comments

Faded into fifth at Mizusawa last start after settling prominently and was beaten over 12 lengths by Hapina Star despite being near the top of betting. Her previous third behind Pakara Pakara was more encouraging, working home evenly from an outside-chance profile. Lightly raced and already twice placed, she can bounce back into the minors if that earlier run is repeated.

Expected Settling Position: Midfield

Comments

Finished last at this track last week behind La La Clochette, beaten over 12 lengths after settling back and making no impression. That followed a well-beaten seventh at Mizusawa when she was again unwanted in the market. Her career record is one placing from 26 starts, so even with the rider back she faces a stiff task on exposed form.

Comments

Has put together consecutive fourths at Mizusawa, most recently battling on well behind Meiner Evince when beaten seven lengths. The run before had more merit, looming before finishing three lengths from S C Yamato at outsider odds. He has the career wins to respect, but no placing in the past 12 months tempers the confidence from a wide draw.
