GOING:

Race 8 1400m

Track:      

Pace genuine with Key Sonata and Dream Encore pressing hard closely followed by Mikino Baccarat and Pod Buddy. MIKINO BACCARAT (11) broke through for his maiden win over 1200m at Morioka Dirt last time, scoring comfortably. Tricky draw to overcome but he is sure to go well. CAPITAL PLANE (9) is yet to break through in eight runs. Finished fourth at her last appearance over 1200m at Morioka Dirt on August 24. Finds a suitable assignment this time and is a great chance to break the ice. KEY SONATA (8) was strongly fancied last start but couldn't deliver, finishing seventh over 1400m at Morioka Dirt. Worth consideration here. DREAM ENCORE (7) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago but couldn't follow that up last time out when sixth over 1400m at Morioka Dirt. Well placed to bounce back.
