MORIOKA DIRT   08 Sep 2025
 
GOING:

Race 12 1600m

Track:      

Hot tempo expected from Double Lucky and Sprouting. LAST MAN (3) pushed forward and went on to record a determined win last start by 7 lengths over 1600m at this track. Will be up on the speed from the low draw. Finds a tougher race but another big run will not surprise. SANEI CONDOR (7) scored at his most recent appearance, getting home by 2.5 lengths over 1600m at this track as favourite. That continued the solid form this campaign, with four wins from nine starts. Leading player again. TOSEN MASSIMO (6) raced on the speed and found plenty to score by a neck at this track and trip last time out to continue his outstanding recent form. Looks well placed so expect another big run. DOUBLE LUCKY (9) registered a strong win two runs ago then turned in a decent effort last time out when second over 1600m at this track, beaten 1.5 lengths. Likely improver with top-three prospects.
