NUM TIME COMMENT
1 12:05 Race 1 1400m
ROCKY TITAN (3) racing well. Won two starts back at Morioka Dirt then finished second last time out over 1300m at this track. Everything points towards another big run. HISTORY (8) finished out of the money when fourth over 1400m at this track two weeks ago. Looks well placed and has claims. ROBARIA SPEED (5) is backing up quickly after finishing in the money at this track over 1400m just eight days ago. Strong run last time and is a real danger. MARGOT MYTHOS (7) improved last start but found a couple better over 1400m at Morioka Dirt. Finds a suitable race and can go on to take this out.
2 12:40 Race 2 1400m
I'LL BE THERE (1) was an impressive winner last time over 1300m at this track, leading throughout and putting 3 lengths on her rivals. Hidetoshi Abe who has scored on her two times retains the mount. Leading contender. VICTORY CANON (2) turned in a fine effort to win by one length at today's track and distance last start to maintain his good form of late. Finds another suitable race and can play a major role again. VOLTERRA (4) has progressed nicely in her last couple of runs. Finished third at Morioka Dirt two starts back then got the job done by 1.3 lengths last time out over 1400m at Morioka Dirt. Back in form and is definitely worth including. COURANTE (7) turned in another moderate effort last start when seventh over 1400m at this track. Better than recent efforts suggest and can contest today.
3 01:10 Race 3 1400m
GOOD LUCK GIRL (4) is racing well including a last-start win over 1300m at this track, getting home by 2.5 lengths. Sure to enjoy a good run from the nice draw. Will prove hard to beat. ERICE (8) was flying with two wins in a row before being sent out favourite last time and finishing fifth over 1400m at Morioka Dirt. Has the pace to settle in the leading division. Expected to be in the finish this time out. BEAR BELIEVE (1) drifted back over 1400m here last time before winding up late to finish fourth. Among the chances and will be tough to stop. TOA ANELA (9) made progress last start to finish third over 1400m at this track. Best efforts measure up so capable of another big run.
4 01:45 Race 4 850m
AGAT (3) set the tempo last time out and boxed on to finish a head from the winner in second at this track over 850m. Has been in solid form this campaign with a win and three minor placings from six starts and is among the leading chances. CAMP FIRE (9) has just missed the top-three at his last few runs, the latest when fifth over 850m at this track. Key runner on his best form and can feature in the finish. MAXILLARIA (2) missed the frame last start over 850m at this track when seventh. Well placed and can bounce back. LORD GUARDIAN (1) scored three runs back but has been disappointing in two subsequent efforts, the latest when eighth over 1200m at Morioka Dirt. Better than recent form suggests and worth including.
5 02:25 Race 5 850m
SRI DEVI (3) racing well. Camped just off the lead at this track last start and boxed on well, finishing third and not far from the winner. Expected to go well again. CRANE ROCKET (7) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid third at this track over 850m after being prominent from the outset. Will drift back but wind up late and is nicely placed to play a pivotal role. LA MIA VITA (6) ran below expectations last time out, finishing fifth starting at $4.10. Worth noting Yuichi Sakaguchi goes aboard and is well placed to play a major role. SASAKIN ROSE (4) turned in a better run last start, finishing fourth over 850m at this track. Has her share of ability and is a top-three prospect.
6 03:00 Race 6 1400m
FIXED STAR (4) was in the money two starts back at Morioka Dirt but couldn't back that up when unplaced over 1400m at Morioka Dirt last time. Tough to beat on best and can atone. MICHETTE (2) has struggled on the JRA circuit recently but is better placed here and can feature. Look for an improved run. LEFT FIELDER (3) was out of the money last start over 1400m at this track when fourth. Still in first campaign and should be further improved. PICK AND ROLL (7) missed the frame last start over 1400m at this track, finishing seventh. Well placed to turn things around.
7 03:35 Race 7 1400m
KITANO CONDOR (10) turned in a fine effort to score by 6 lengths at today's course and distance last start to maintain his good form of late. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot repeat the dose. LE BEAU TEMPS (5) struggled in a tougher race two starts back but last time appreciated the drop in grade and bounced back to salute over 1400m at Morioka Dirt. Should measure up again. LOVE SHOCK (1) finished third last time over 1400m here. Has started two times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Toshiya Yamamoto gets the best out of this three-year-old filly. Placed to advantage so expect a forward showing. NOIBARA (8) had been in top form, scoring two consecutive wins before being sent out favourite last time and finishing fifth over 1400m at this track. Hidetoshi Abe who has scored on her two times retains the mount. Among the top-three hopes.
8 04:10 Race 8 850m
SAHARANT ASIA (1) went fast early over 1200m at Morioka Dirt last time and went on to score by a nose. Drawn to enjoy a good run on the speed and can repeat the dose. MODERN FRINGE (8) defied a lack of market support last start, scoring by half a length over 1200m at Morioka Dirt. Goes well over this trip, filling a placing at all four starts, including a win and should be hard to stop. HOYO CRYSTAL (9) showed good speed last time out and fought on well when second over 850m at this track. Should settle on the speed despite the draw. Commendable record at this trip with a win and five minor placings and is one of the contenders. YAMANIN PANITA (10) resumed last start over 850m at this track where she stalked the pace before drawing clear to score by a head. Relished dirt racing last time and is in the mix again.
9 04:45 Race 9 1400m
MONGOLIAN KING (9) was on the move turning for home and found the line strongly to finish second over 1400m at this track last time. Should run well. EL MERCURIO (5) did a great job to score by half a length over this course and distance last start in a much-improved run. Taking on a better line-up this time but she can get the job done. PRIMA WAY (3) showed good early dash and led for much of the way over this course and distance last time, eventually fading to finish fifth. Toshiya Yamamoto who has two wins when partnering stays on. One of the main contenders. WELL MADE (6) has been in the placings at her last two appearances, finishing third over 1400m at this track most recently. Sure to be about the mark again.
10 05:20 Race 10 1600m
TOUR MODEL (1) did a good job last start to finish second over 1600m at this track. Placed to advantage and can make her presence felt. TAIKI MONSTRE (3) hasn't made an impression lately despite market confidence, last start only managing sixth over 1600m at this track. Open to improvement and is among the chances. RETICLE (7) was in the money two starts back at Morioka Dirt but couldn't back it up last time when ninth here over 850m. Best figures measure up and can run well. ASIA NO KAIZOKU (5) was responsible for a better run last start when fourth over 1600m at this track. Well placed and can figure in the finish this time.
11 05:55 Race 11 1600m
SUN ENTUSIASTA (3) was below her best two back at Morioka Dirt then ran a much better race last start when third over 1600m at this track. Leading contender. TSURUMARU BELL (2) ran a strong race last time out, finishing third over 1400m at this track. Has raced four times here and has never missed the frame. Beautifully placed and worth including. CONCARNEAU (6) missed the frame last start when she got a long way back over 1600m at this track, finishing ninth. Finds a nice race and can take this out. LYCKA KRONA (4) turned in another moderate effort last start when ninth over 1400m at this track. Out in trip and worth including.
12 06:30 Race 12 1900m
PERSONAL MAKI (6) is in sparkling form with wins at his last four starts including a 1600m win at Morioka Dirt last start. Only has to run out the 1900m first for the first time to make it five straight. YAMANIN SOWELU (1) defied her big price last time when beaten just a neck into second over 1600m at this track. Well placed and should be in the finish. A SHIN NUCIMASNU (2) built on a nice third two starts back with success over 1600m at this track two weeks ago, getting home by 2 lengths. Reika Sekimoto scored on her last time and retains the mount. Meets a stronger field but she is up to the task. YAMASHO LIEN (4) showed good early speed and raced just off the lead before lifting to score by a neck over 1600m at Morioka Dirt last start. Can figure in the finish again.
