MORIOKA DIRT   02 Sep 2025
 
GOING:

Race 11 1600m

Track:      

Pace looks to be genuine with Conti Tohoku and Chuo Pet matching motors in advance of Oken Amazoness and With Hope. CONTI TOHOKU (1) was in a different class last time, registering a dominant 3 lengths win over 1400m at this track to make it two on the bounce. Should camp just off the leaders. Can land the hat trick. OKEN AMAZONESS (7) has progressed nicely in her last couple of runs. Finished third two starts back then got the job done by 0.8 lengths last time out over 1600m at this track. Rei Iwamoto scored on her last time and retains the ride. Meets some better types this time but a big run is on the cards. NARINO BARON (10) settled well back when 4 lengths from the winner in seventh over 1600m at this track last start. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time. CHUO PET (3) turned in a decent effort last start to finish second over 1600m at this track. Go well.
