MORIOKA DIRT   01 Nov 2025
 
GOING:

Race 6 1600m

Track:      

Expecting Ema Rion Lei to take up the running with How Far I'll Go and Shiny Rock close at hand. HOW FAR I'LL GO (7) progressed nicely last time out to finish just 1.1 lengths from the winner in third over 1600m on the turf. Can go on with it now. GARRETT (3) scored a 0.8-length win on turf here two starts ago then followed up with a minor placing on this track over 1600m a week-and-a-half ago. Hard to fault as he chases another turf track win. LANGLOIS (5) scored on the turf last time out with 2.5 lengths in reserve at the end of 1700m. Boasts four wins here. Shinobu Murakami who has four wins when partnering stays on. Has claims. SNOW PATROL (8) got home by 2.5 lengths at Mizusawa two starts ago but disappointed in another run on dirt last time out. Looks set for a bold showing.
