GOING:

Race 9 1400m

Track:      

Plenty of pressure primarily from Kitano Passion, Step and Fancy Day. FANCY DAY (5) got the prize two runs ago at Morioka Dirt. Safely held last time out when sixth over 1000m at Morioka Dirt, beaten 6 lengths. Stepping up a level this time but on her best form she is good enough to take this out. STEP (4) went forward and gave a great sight before finishing second last time out over 1400m at Morioka Dirt. Likely improver with strong prospects. KEEP ON TOP (6) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 9 lengths when sixth over 1600m at Morioka Dirt four weeks ago. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. KITANO PASSION (7) was sent out at long odds last time but ran above expectations to finish second, beaten only 0.8 lengths, over 1000m at Morioka Dirt. Has a win and three minor placings from five starts at this track and distance. Solid claims on best form.
