Mizusawa Race 6 - Race 6 - 1400
GRACE RULER (1) is the assessed top seed despite coming off a plain seventh at Mizusawa, where she was beaten over 14 lengths after being near the top of an open market. The positive is the softer 3yo C2 set-up, race fitness and a kinder draw, but she still has to produce a clear turnaround. HAPINA STAR (2) brings the strongest current form, charging home to miss by half a length here after a solid Morioka Dirt third, and his placed record with Masatoshi Yamamoto reads well for this. PATRICIA (5) has been around the mark with a neck second two runs back and some market support again last start, though HAPINA STAR had her measure at Mizusawa. JOLIE SA KI SE (9) is the value place-to-win danger after a long-odds second here, but she needs to convert that improved effort into a more decisive finish.

Needs to rebound from a plain Mizusawa seventh, beaten over 14 lengths by Gabby's D'Etoile after sitting close enough and failing to challenge. Her Fukushima 3yo Maiden run over 2000m was also well held, but she is race fit now, drops in class and gets Ryo Takamatsu from barrier one. The recent margins are a concern, yet this looks a more suitable assignment if she can lift sharply.

Charged home from a near-impossible position when second at Mizusawa, beaten half a length by Pakara Pakara after being near the top of betting. That followed a sound Morioka Dirt third behind Iris Aster, so his recent form is the most reliable profile here. He has placed in all three rides for Masatoshi Yamamoto, and although the trip still has a small query, he is close to breaking through.

Was never a factor at Mizusawa last start, finishing eighth and beaten over 15 lengths by Gabby's D'Etoile at long odds. The prior Morioka Dirt sixth was also well held, beaten over 11 lengths by Bee Stunning. A class drop and race fitness help only so much when the overall maiden record is two placings from 24 starts, so she needs a sizeable form reversal.

Improved on paper when fourth at Mizusawa, but was still beaten just over nine lengths by Gabby's D'Etoile after settling rearward as an outsider. The run prior at Morioka Dirt was weaker again, finishing ninth and beaten over 11 lengths when unwanted in betting. She is race fit and drops in class, but needs to find a stronger closing run to trouble the better chances.

Battled on for fourth at Mizusawa last start, beaten just under six lengths by Pakara Pakara after attracting some market support. Her previous Morioka Dirt second was stronger, beaten a neck by Sakura Beau Belle after just failing to hold on. She races handy enough to use barrier five, gets Toshiya Yamamoto back aboard, and remains a solid winning chance if she can stretch that effort to 1400m.

Has put together consecutive placings, the latest a Mizusawa third behind Pakara Pakara when beaten four and a half lengths as an outside chance. She had earlier run second at Morioka Dirt, but that came as a well-supported favourite and she was still beaten four lengths by Kitano Ayaka. The lightly raced profile gives scope, though she needs more authority late to turn placings into a win.

Returns from a lengthy spell after finishing last in a 2yo COND at Morioka Dirt, well beaten by Fuji Hook Hand after dropping out sharply in the straight. Her previous run in the same grade was also poor, beaten over 20 lengths by Valuable after being near the top of betting. With no placing from six starts and little recent race evidence, she has a steep task first-up.

Worked home fairly from well back when sixth at Mizusawa, but was still beaten over 13 lengths by Gabby's D'Etoile and started at long odds. His Morioka Dirt run prior was similar, finishing seventh and beaten just over nine lengths after being unwanted in the market. The class drop keeps him in the minor-money conversation, but he must settle closer or finish harder.

Ran second at Mizusawa last start, beaten three lengths by Luath Gloir at long odds after looming and fighting on without really threatening the winner. Before that she was fourth in a 3yo+ C4 at Mombetsu over 1000m, beaten just under three lengths after leading to the turn. Her maiden record is a query, but the latest run says she can hold a place again.

Finished third at Mizusawa last start, beaten just over three lengths by Gabby's D'Etoile after starting short odds-on favourite, so the result was below market expectation. His Morioka Dirt second behind Iris Aster was better, and he has placed in both rides for Tatsunori Sugawara. He beat Grace Ruler and Hapina Star here two weeks ago, but needs to turn consistency into a sharper winning finish.

Dropped out badly at Mizusawa last start, finishing eighth and beaten over 16 lengths by Satono Trinity after giving little in the straight. The run prior at Morioka Dirt was also safely held, beaten over 11 lengths by Bee Stunning at long odds. With one placing from 18 starts and no placing from seven track-and-distance attempts, she needs a substantial lift.
