GOING:

Race 4 1300m

Track:      

It's likely to be tactical given scant early speed. HANA HIRAKU (1) again failed to feature last start, finishing sixth over 1300m at this track. Rates highly on best form and should go a lot better. HOROYOI MANGETSU (11) ran below expectations last time at this track, finishing eighth after starting at $9.80. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. KARAJISHI (5) finished third at Morioka Dirt two runs back but didn't measure up last time over 1300m at this track, finishing back in eighth. Likely improver with strong prospects. STRAIGHT (7) hit the frame two starts ago at this track but ran below par last time when seventh over 1300m at this track. Likely improver with top-three prospects.

At the latest run didn't do much in the run home; 6th of 11 at this track on December 8 over 1300m, 11 len behind Marino Theresia with 54kg at $2. The start before that crossed from a wide gate to lead but couldn't hold on when 2nd of 15 at Monbetsu on November 11 over 1200m, 4 len behind Clever Ben with 55kg at $5. Makes plenty of appeal from the inside alley.
