Morioka Race 4 - Race 4 - 1200
MAEGAMIINOCHIKEI (5) has been out of the placings in two runs since a break, the latest when fourth, beaten 4 lengths, over 1300m at Mizusawa. Has further improvement to come and is worth following up. YAMANIN EPURER (1) was thereabouts last time out when third over 850m at Mizusawa. The extra journey should play into her hands. Can win this without surprising. DARK FANTASY (7) last appeared five-and-a-half weeks ago over 800m at Urawa when she finished seventh. This is her first run for the Kazumune Ito stable. Worth plenty of thought. CRYPTIC CODE (4) failed to figure again last time over 1300m at Mizusawa, beaten 9 lengths into ninth. Place hope.

Comes off a 38 day let-up. Most recently got back early 7th of 12 at Urawa on May 29 over 800m, 7 len behind Queen's Happy carrying 54kg at $76.70. The run before that 9th of 12 at Funabashi on May 6 over 1200m, 15 len behind Eis King with 54kg at $12.20. Nice effort last time so worth following up.
