Race 1 1400m
HEROIC TALE (11) sets the standard after returning with a decisive Mizusawa win, scoring by six lengths as a short odds-on favourite and doing it with authority. The rise to 1400m is the only meaningful reservation, but he has the strongest last-start performance in the race. JUN HANS (6) is the main danger on consistency, having run second here last time after a solid fourth in a 3yo+ B3 at Kasamatsu, and his distance record gives him a proper platform. STAR ADMIRAL (2) has been costly as favourite at his past two, but placings at Morioka Dirt and Mizusawa keep him firmly in the winning mix. OKEN AMAZONESS (4) was plain last start, yet her prior fourth at Morioka Dirt and long association with Rei Iwamoto give her enough substance to be included as the value selection rather than a leading hope. |

Race 2 1400m
TAISEI ADAMAS (1) sets the standard after an authoritative Mizusawa win, scoring by two and a half lengths as a short odds-on favourite after a solid second to Asterope the run before. His track-and-trip record and strong association with Ryo Takamatsu give him the clearest profile. FUKU TAOYUAN (9) is the main danger, coming off a determined half-length win over Dona Aphrodite and now has confidence back, though he still has a distance query to answer. GOD VALLEY (6) has been costly as favourite at Morioka Dirt but drops out of 3yo+ C1 form and his fourth to Pure Makena reads well enough for this. EYES (5) disappointed as favourite here, yet his previous 3yo+ B2 run at Ohi gives him a placing platform if he improves sharply. |

Race 3 1400m
CHATEAU BOBBY (3) is the starting point after winning here by a length as favourite, a sharp rebound from his 3yo+ B1B2 fifth at Morioka Dirt, and his 1400m record gives that form enough substance for this C2. T O RENOIR (2) was beaten just over three lengths as an odds-on favourite last week, so there is an atonement angle, but his four wins and seven placings from 23 starts at the distance keep him firmly in calculations. BLEU CHATEAU (9) brings the most consistent recent profile, having won by a head here after a close Morioka Dirt placing, and his track-and-distance record is a strong supporting point. UWASANO DEKOPIN (5) is not as dominant, but the win two back over Primo Joker and a subsequent third to Annindofu make him a genuine minor winning hope if he sharpens late. |

Race 4 1400m
PAKARA PAKARA (1) earns top billing after winning here last start in 3yo C2 company, scoring by half a length from Hapina Star at generous odds. The reservation is that his previous run at Morioka Dirt was plain when heavily backed at very short odds, but the return to Mizusawa clearly sparked improvement. G T HIRARI (5) has the most reliable recent two-run profile, winning strongly at Morioka Dirt before running second to Namura Degas, and the rider-horse record adds substance. SHINY BLUE (7) is the classier fresh question: she resumes after ten months with three placings from five starts and prior form around Aquanaut and Masano Lily, though she still has to convert. ANDERSTORP (8) comes off a decisive Morioka Dirt win over 1200m and deserves respect, but the rise to 1400m asks a new question after mixed earlier form. |

Race 5 1400m
GABBY'S D'ETOILE (8) brings the strongest last-start reference, having broken through at Mizusawa over this trip by three lengths from Expectant. The sharp turnaround from a plain Chukyo Dirt run is the only point to keep in mind, but she is already a track-and-trip winner and sets the standard. LEON ANTHA (1) has finished second at Morioka Dirt at her past two, most recently beaten a neck by Happy Karn, and the inside draw gives her a genuine chance to convert consistency into a win. STORM EYE (5) was safely held by Schnee Dream here but has been competitive enough this campaign and has the rider-horse record to keep her in calculations. BEE STUNNING (6) was below her Morioka Dirt win last time, yet that four-length victory two back keeps her in the mix if she rebounds. |

Race 6 1400m
KITANO AYAKA (8) sets the standard after putting two wins together, most recently scoring by five lengths over 1400m at Mizusawa after being well found in betting. That followed a four-length 1200m win at Morioka Dirt, so she brings the sharpest recent winning profile. MORETSU (2) resumes after a two-month break, which is the obvious query, but his record remains strong: two wins and one placing from six starts, with a prior 3yo C2 win before being safely held second as odds-on favourite in 3yo C1 company. HAPPY KARN (5) is the danger with consecutive neck wins at Morioka Dirt, including one over this trip, and his record with Makoto Otsubo is perfect from two starts. KITANOLESCLEFSD'OR (6) has the place edge on consistency, having won by four lengths two back before a solid third here, though she may need another step to turn that into a win. |

Race 7 1400m
SCHNEE DREAM (3) sets the standard after back-to-back wins, the latest a five-length 3yo C1 success at Mizusawa when heavily supported into very short odds-on territory. She has also won at this distance and is unbeaten in two starts with Yu Suzuki, so the recent profile is compelling. KING SPADE (4) is the danger on best form, with two wins this season and an excellent record with Ryo Takamatsu, but he must rebound after finishing last as a prohibitive odds-on favourite at Morioka Dirt. SHOOT THE MOON (7) has the right track profile and comes off a clear second to Taisei Gosh here, making him a genuine threat if he holds that level. SISTER BLACK (1) is more of a place hope: her Morioka Dirt win two back keeps her in calculations, but her last-start Mizusawa failure is hard to ignore. |

Race 8 850m
KITANO ROWERS (6) sets the benchmark after a decisive 3yo+ B2 win at Mizusawa, scoring by three lengths as an odds-on favourite, and her record of three wins and two placings from six attempts at this track and distance gives the selection real substance. FIERTE (5) is the obvious danger, having put together two dominant 3yo+ C2 wins here, including a two-length success last time after being sent out a very short odds-on favourite; the question is how that form translates into B1 company. IKIZAMA (4) resumes after two months off and must improve sharply on his latest Morioka Dirt run, but his prior fourth and proven track-and-distance profile keep him in the place mix. COSMO TARRAGON (9) has been sound rather than threatening at his past two, yet the return of Tatsunori Sugawara and a strong jockey-horse record make him a legitimate minor-money chance if he lifts late. |

Race 9 1400m
SUN CALYPSO (3) is the top contender after a close B1 third at Mizusawa, just a long neck off the win as the favorite. Her prior second at Morioka Dirt adds to her profile, and with two wins and four places from 13 starts at this track and distance, she stands out. PALPITATION (11) poses a serious threat, having recorded three straight seconds, most recently finishing a length and a half behind at Morioka Dirt, plus her perfect placing record with Toshiki Yamamoto is impressive. GOTTLIEB (8), while winless recently, boasts a solid distance record with three wins and two places from eight starts, suggesting he's capable at 1400m. RAGDOLL (12) comes off a neck second at Mizusawa over 1600m and shows good overall consistency, though he needs to prove he can convert that into a win at this distance. The race centers on Sun Calypso's recent form, with Palpitation next in line, while Gottlieb and Ragdoll remain threats if they find their best form. |

Race 10 1400m
PRINCESS KNIGHT (9) is the runner with the clearest winning profile, arriving off successive 1200m wins at Morioka Dirt, the latest by three lengths as a dominant odds-on favourite. The rise to 1400m asks a little more, but her current form and outstanding record with Toshiya Yamamoto give her strong claims. CHIC SEIN (3) is the main danger, having finished fourth over 1600m at Mizusawa after being near the top of betting, and his record at both the track and distance reads well for this. VIGOUREUSEMENT (1) brings the best recent Mizusawa reference after being beaten half a length by Kaito Licht here, and another honest showing puts him right in the race. DIVA DREAM (11) has to rebound from a plain 1600m effort, but her Morioka Dirt win two back keeps her in the discussion if she handles 1400m better. |

Race 11 1600m
LOST BALL (2) brings the most reliable winning profile after an odds-on 3yo+ C1 success over 1400m at Morioka Dirt, backed by a narrow defeat the run before when again heavily fancied. The rise to 1600m is the clear question, but his current form and strong record with Reika Sekimoto make him the runner to beat. TOVARISCH (7) is the obvious danger after being beaten a nose here last start, and his three wins from five at Mizusawa give that performance solid substance, though he still has to put the mile away. SNOW PATROL (1) improved sharply when fourth here behind Sanei Brave and owns an excellent Mizusawa 1600m record, so she is a genuine threat if she repeats that closing effort. FEARLESS HEART (4) arrives off a last-start win at Morioka Dirt and has placed in all three Mizusawa runs, but he profiles slightly more as a place danger unless he reproduces that latest finish at B1 level. |

Race 12 1600m
FOR ELISE (11) sets the standard on consistency, having won by four lengths over 1600m at Morioka two back before being beaten a head as a heavily supported odds-on runner in 3yo+ B2 company. The wide draw is not ideal, but her record with Masatoshi Yamamoto and proven Mizusawa mile form give her a strong profile. SANEI BRAVE (5) is the seasoned danger, coming off a nose win here after a solid Morioka Dirt second, and his eleven wins at this track and distance command respect. MISHIRO WAY (3) was decisive here last start, beating Shimasan Black by three lengths, and stays right in calculations if he repeats that sharp effort. SHIMASAN BLACK (1) has been placed at his past two and is unbeaten out of the placings in three runs at Mizusawa, though he must turn the tables on Mishiro Way after starting favourite last time. |
