Mizusawa Race 7 - Race 7 - 850
TAIKONEN (7) appeals as the most reliable winning option after improving sharply at Mizusawa last start, beaten two lengths by Lord Twilight, and she already has two wins at this track and distance. EIKAI SOPHIA (2) is the clear danger: she was kept safe in betting when fifth behind the same winner and meets this race with only 50kg, though TAIKONEN did have her measure a couple of weeks ago. COURANTE (5) has a genuine case on the strength of her Morioka Dirt win two back, where she beat Cosmo Vered by four lengths, but she must rebound from a plain fourth behind Fierte. CHERIE AMOUR (1) is the value for exotics, with her recent form only fair but an excellent Mizusawa 850m record keeping her in calculations for minor money.

Worked into fifth in a 3yo+ C2 over 850m at Mizusawa last start, beaten five lengths by Fierte after settling just off the lead and finishing only fairly. The Morioka Dirt run prior was weaker, finishing seventh and beaten over 10 lengths at long odds. The saving grace is her excellent track-and-trip record of four wins and four placings from eleven tries, which keeps her firmly in the minor-money mix.

Kept on from a rearward spot when fifth at Mizusawa last start, beaten four lengths by Lord Twilight, and she was near the top of betting there. Two back she was favourite at Morioka Dirt and finished sixth, beaten three and a half lengths, so the market has continued to respect her. Taikonenen had her measure recently, but the 50kg and Yuka Saito combination give her a strong platform to improve.

Drops out of 3yo+ B2 company after finishing last at Mizusawa, beaten over 11 lengths by Kitano Rowers, and she was unwanted in the market. The previous Morioka Dirt run was no better, beaten over 13 lengths by Princess Knight at long odds. Her two wins and two placings from ten starts at this track and distance are the reason she can lift into a placing, but recent form is a clear concern.

Failed to go on with it at Mizusawa last start, finishing sixth and beaten five and a half lengths by Fierte after a moderate final effort. That came after a Morioka Dirt win over 1000m, where she was odds-on and beat Dan Stone Rosa by a length after taking control early. Her best racing has come when allowed to use that speed, so she remains a place player rather than a runner to declare on top.

Was only fourth at Mizusawa last start, beaten six and a half lengths by Fierte, but the run followed a dominant Morioka Dirt win where she beat Cosmo Vered by four lengths as a short odds-on favourite. She is race fit and has won twice with Yuri Takahashi, which adds some confidence. The latest margin has to be respected, yet her best recent run is good enough to make her a live chance.

Finished ninth at Mizusawa last start over 1400m and was well beaten behind Hecto Princess after having plenty to do. The run prior at Morioka Dirt was worse again, finishing second last and tailed off behind Black Tornado while unwanted in betting. She is unplaced in six starts at this track and distance, so even with a class drop she needs a major form reversal.

Produced her best run of the preparation when fourth at Mizusawa last start, beaten two lengths by Lord Twilight after leading into the lane before being overrun late. The Morioka Dirt run prior was only fair, but she was still within five lengths there and now returns to a track-and-trip where she has won twice. She also beat Eikai Sophia here recently, which strengthens her case as the runner to beat.

Was well beaten when last at Morioka Dirt over 1200m last start despite being near the top of an open market, and the in-running comment offered no real excuse. She had also started favourite two back over 1000m and was beaten over 16 lengths by Neos Teras. A return to 850m may suit better, but with no wins from eight track-and-distance attempts she must regain trust first.

Made some late ground from well back when seventh at Mizusawa last start, beaten just over eight lengths by Fierte, but she was never a winning factor at long odds. Her previous Morioka Dirt second was more encouraging, beaten a length by Kitano Flora after travelling well and picking up in the straight. The track-and-trip record is useful, though she needs to reproduce the better of those two runs.

Returns from a five-week freshening after finishing sixth at Morioka Dirt over 1200m, beaten eight and a half lengths by Livre Wonder when the final effort was poor. She had been third over 1000m the start prior, although still beaten eight lengths by Robaria No Kiseki. Coming back to 850m and reaching her third run this campaign are positives, but she needs to finish off far better.
