Mizusawa Race 3 - Race 3 - 1300
DIBARYON (4) has the strongest recent reference after finishing third here, beaten just over a length by Chateau Bobby, and that result reads well against key rival HONEY BEAT. The plain Ohi run two back is forgiven only to a point, but back at Mizusawa in C2 company he looks the runner with the clearest winning profile. MELIA (7) is the main threat, coming off consecutive fourths and aided by a light 50kg, with her two wins at this track adding substance. HONEY BEAT (6) has to turn the tables on DIBARYON from their recent meeting, though a fourth here last start keeps her firmly in the mix. MITSUKANE VENUS (1) worked home evenly for second behind Heroic Tale and looks a genuine place chance, but she needs to find more than last start to beat the top selection.

Worked home evenly for second at Mizusawa last start, beaten six lengths by Heroic Tale after being near the top of betting. Her previous fifth in a 3yo+ B2 over 1600m at Morioka Dirt was respectable enough, though she was beaten five lengths as favourite. The class drop and race fitness help, but her one win from 34 starts keeps her more in the place mix than as a clear winning choice.

Returns from a four-month break after grinding into third at Morioka Dirt, beaten just over six lengths by Grand Cru when an outside chance in betting. The start prior was a fifth, beaten just under seven lengths, so the recent figures are only fair. He has placed twice from 16 starts at this track and distance, but with no wins from 36 overall he needs a marked lift fresh.

Finished seventh here last week behind Bleu Chateau, beaten six lengths at big odds after settling back and making no late impression. That followed a sixth at Mizusawa when beaten over 14 lengths, so the form line is plain. His track-and-trip background and record with Shinobu Murakami are positives, but he must rebound sharply to turn those old strengths into a current threat.

Improved sharply at Mizusawa last start when third to Chateau Bobby, beaten just over a length after working home evenly and starting near the top of betting. He had been safely held in a 3yo+ B1 over 2000m at Ohi before that, but this is a more suitable C2 assignment. Having beaten Honey Beat in that recent clash, he brings the most persuasive current form despite the distance query.

Made no headway when sixth behind Bleu Chateau at Mizusawa last week, beaten just under six lengths at big odds. He had worked home with some purpose from well back the run prior, but was still beaten over 10 lengths by Rasiel. A seven-win career record says there is ability somewhere, yet he is unplaced in four starts at this track and needs a substantial turnaround.

Was fair rather than forceful when fourth to Chateau Bobby at Mizusawa last start, beaten just under four lengths, and she also finished behind Dibaryon there. The previous eighth in a 3yo+ C1 at Morioka Dirt was plain after she failed to challenge in the straight. Her overall record of three wins and 13 places from 45 starts gives her depth, but she needs to find a stronger late response.

Made up good ground when fourth at Mizusawa last week, beaten five lengths by Taisei Adamas in an open market. Her earlier fourth in a 3yo+ C1 at Morioka Dirt was also sound after being unwanted in betting, so the current preparation is building. With 50kg, proven Mizusawa form and a class drop in her favour, she looks the main danger if she finishes off with the same purpose.

Never looked likely when second last behind Bleu Chateau at Mizusawa last week, beaten nine and a half lengths after being unwanted in the market. She had also finished ninth in a 3yo+ C1 at Morioka Dirt, beaten over 11 lengths, so there is no recent platform to build from. The class drop is noted, but being unplaced in 11 starts over the past 12 months is a major concern.

Dropped out to finish eighth behind Rasiel at Mizusawa last start, beaten over 15 lengths after having the job ahead and failing to close. The previous second over 1000m at Morioka Dirt was better, but that came at a shorter trip and he still finished four lengths from Courante. A minor track-and-distance placing offers some hope, yet his latest run leaves plenty to repair.

Was just fair through the line when fifth to Chateau Bobby at Mizusawa last start, beaten just under six lengths after being near the top of betting. He had run second to Hecto Princess at Morioka Dirt the start prior, though again the margin was six lengths. His 11 career wins command respect, but he lost to Dibaryon and Honey Beat recently and profiles as a place hope here.
