GOING:

Race 11 1400m

Track:      

Solid tempo headed by Love Me Monica and Yuranographia. WATASHIWA SAIKYO (9) hasn’t been far away since a maiden win four runs back, the latest effort a third over 1400m at Morioka Dirt on June 3. Winning rider Ryo Takamatsu stays aboard. Should be in the finish. BE MAGICAL (4) was narrowly beaten at a huge quote last time out, finishing second over 1400m at Morioka Dirt. Bold showing expected again. A SHIN NUCIMASNU (1) was in the finish last time when beaten a head into second over 1400m at Morioka Dirt. Has sound form at this track and distance with a win and three minor placings from six runs. One of the main contenders. SPIRIT KOOKS (7) missed the frame last start over 1400m at Morioka Dirt when eighth. Toshiya Yamamoto gets the best out of this five-year-old entire. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.
