MORIOKA DIRT   28 Jul 2026
 
GOING:

Race 5 1400m

Track:      

Kitano Boston to take up the running with Murude and Pittam Nunmul close at hand. MORETSU (6) has scored at his last two starts, most recently by 1.75 lengths over 1400m at this track as favourite. That continued the very strong form this campaign, with two wins from three outings. Top chance again. MURUDE (4) ran a bold race over this journey last start, racing on the pace and sticking on strongly to finish one length away in second at this track. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run again. SCARLATTI (7) is a last-start winner over 1200m at this track, showing good early speed on the occasion and leading throughout to score by 0.8 lengths. Yuri Takahashi stays aboard. Has claims on her best figures. KITANO BOSTON (10) did well to score two runs ago then turned in a nice run last time out when third over 1400m at this track, beaten 2.75 lengths. Worth another chance.
