MORIOKA DIRT   12 Oct 2025
 
GOING:

Race 1 1200m

Track:      

Anticipate a moderate tempo is a race devoid of recognised speedsters. GOLD HADITH (8) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1300m at Mizusawa. Strips fitter and can go on to take this out. BLUE CHERRY (4) finished out of the money on debut two starts back then she was always well out of her ground when 15th over 1600m at Nakayama four weeks ago. Has the class to find the winners' list in this easier race. EUKLEIA (2) turned in a moderate run over this journey last time out, settling in a rearwards position and failing to make an impact when seventh over 1200m at Monbetsu. Faces an easier assignment and is a major player. K TWO TANKA (5) turned in another moderate effort last start when 13th over 1200m at Niigata Dirt. Best efforts measure up and worth another chance here.
