MORIOKA DIRT   09 Sep 2025
 
GOING:

Race 2 1200m

Track:      

Sonobashinogi is expected to lead at a keen tempo. TRICHROMATIC (7) has been out of the frame at his last couple of runs, last time finishing back in 13th over 1600m at Niigata. Forgive the last couple in tougher company. Could be hard to beat this time. LOTS OF PLANS (5) has switched yards since finishing eighth five-and-a-half weeks ago over 2000m at Chukyo. Likely to play a major role. TON YAIBIN (11) is a five-start maiden who returned last time and finished tenth at Niigata Dirt over 1800m. Will derive great benefit from that outing and deserves consideration. OPTICS (6) resumes from a spell of nine weeks and is having his first outing under new trainer Isao Sugawara. Finished 13th at Kokura Dirt over 1700m at the opening run last time in work. Can feature.

Most recently raced on the speed throughout before fading second last of 8 at this track on August 26 over 1200m, 17 len behind Dramaturgy with 54kg at $7.30. The race before that didn't do much in the run home; 7th of 11 at this track on August 12 over 1200m, 6 len behind Evergreen with 54kg at $23.90. Worth thought from inside alley.
