Mizusawa Race 11 - Race 11 - 1600
ADMIRE ADEL (1) brings the most compelling profile despite resuming, having put away 3yo+ C2 company by six lengths and then 3yo+ C1 company by eight lengths at Morioka Dirt before the break. The step to 1600m is the genuine question, but the winning form and rider record give her a clear platform. SAKURA MAU (4) is the race-fit danger, arriving off a 3yo+ C1 win over Big Sisi Roof after a solid second to Pure Makena, and she has enough distance evidence to be respected again. HOMME BRAVE (3) is harder to trust after finishing a distant last at Mizusawa, though his prior Morioka Dirt finish was better than the bare placing. VIVID MOON (2) has class-drop claims but must improve on a plain Kawasaki tenth to turn that into more than a place chance.

Returns from a four-month break after stringing together dominant Morioka Dirt wins, beating Cosmo Bellaestella by six lengths in 3yo+ C2 company before putting eight lengths on Migliore Alba in 3yo+ C1 grade. She was heavily backed into very short odds both times and can use barrier 1 to hold a prominent role. The rise to 1600m is the query, but her current form line reads strongly.

Returns from a five-week freshening after finishing tenth at Kawasaki, beaten just over seven lengths by Hiroki when just off the leaders and offering little when asked. The run prior was sounder, finishing fifth to Kazuya after being near the top of betting, but she was still beaten four and a half lengths. A class drop helps, yet the mile remains a genuine test of her finishing strength.

Finished a distant last behind Hakushin Malpensa at Mizusawa two weeks ago, settling miles back and making no impression after being unwanted in the market. His previous eighth at Morioka Dirt had more merit, as he at least closed off from a long way back when beaten just under seven lengths by Falchion. Still, with no track placing from four tries, he needs a sharp rebound to fill a minor spot.

Lifted again at Morioka Dirt last start, beating Big Sisi Roof by half a length in 3yo+ C1 company after being sent out at generous odds. That followed a second to Pure Makena, beaten a length and a half, so her latest improvement was no fluke. She owns a solid record with Makoto Otsubo and has won at the distance, making her the main race-fit threat to the top pick.

Has been well held at his past two, finishing seventh behind Hakushin Malpensa at Mizusawa when beaten over 19 lengths after giving away a big start. The start prior was no better, running second last to Aile Plaisir at Morioka Dirt and beaten over 16 lengths. His seven wins at this track and distance command respect, but current form leaves him with plenty to find.

Dropped out second last behind Cosmos Mitchi at Morioka Dirt last start, well beaten by 21 lengths after being an outside chance in the betting. He had also finished second last to Pure Makena the run before, beaten over 11 lengths at big odds, with no obvious excuse either time. Shinobu Murakami taking the ride is a plus, but the recent form demands a far better response.

Worked home okay for third at Mizusawa two weeks ago, beaten just over four lengths by A Qui Mieux Mieux after passing tired runners late. That was a step up on her fifth to Kitano Couver at Morioka Dirt, where she was never a winning hope at big odds. The quick back-up is a small positive and she can chase another placing, though her winning claims remain limited.

Was in touch before offering little when fifth to Yamano Mataka at Mizusawa, beaten over 10 lengths as an outside chance in the betting. His previous sixth behind Sakura Mau reads better on margin, as he was beaten only two lengths at Morioka Dirt despite being unwanted in the market. With two wins and nine places from 23 starts at this track and distance, he can improve into the exotics.
