Morioka Race 3 - Race 3 - 1200
MEISHO AYUKAZE (1) On a short turnaround. Disappointing run when 7th last time at Mizusawa but drawn well. One of the major players. PEACE LUCKY (4) Underperformed when 12th last start at Mizusawa. Should race on the speed. No shock to see a win. MAURIAT (2) Ran 8th last run at Niigata. Should improve and drawn nicely. First start for a new trainer. Will be motoring home late. Has to be included. ESAN (3) Backing up quickly for this race. Disappointing outing when 11th last time at Mizusawa but suited by the weight drop. Include in chances.

Resumed at Mizusawa with a plain seventh behind Hollyanne, beaten over 15 lengths after sitting just off the pace and failing to launch a serious challenge. Her previous run was a distant last in 3yo+ C1 company at this track, so the class drop and quick back-up are the main positives. Four unplaced attempts around 1200m temper confidence, but she can improve enough to chase a minor placing.

Returns from a six-week let-up after finishing eighth in a 3yo Maiden at Niigata Dirt, beaten over 12 lengths after settling miles back and making no impression. She had been closer in margin when tenth at Hakodate, beaten six and a half lengths by Darling Darling. The form is not flattering, but the class drop is significant and this looks a more suitable race for her to make an impact.

Was beaten a long way at Mizusawa last start after settling well back and failing to improve, and the market gave him little support at big odds. Two back he held a narrow lead before being swamped late and finishing sixth behind Kamino Teio. The class drop and weight relief help, but an 18-start maiden record and seven unplaced runs at this track and distance leave him relying on others to underperform.

Comes through two Mizusawa runs over 1400m, finishing last in a 3yo B1 behind Nike Felice last start after settling just off the lead, then fading out after racing prominently in 3yo B2 grade the run prior. She has been unwanted in betting and has not placed in three previous tries around 1200m. Even so, the class drop and strong rider-trainer profile give her a workable place case.

Returns from a three-month break after ending his last campaign with a seventh at this track, beaten over 13 lengths behind Benefactor after settling rearward and making no impression. His prior sixth at this venue was a heavier defeat behind Moretsu, and he has yet to place from three starts. The lighter evidence base offers some scope, but the race form so far leaves him with plenty to prove.

Finished last at Mizusawa a week ago, well beaten by 22 lengths behind Hollyanne after conceding a huge start and never entering the race. The run prior was another distant defeat, finishing second last behind S C Yamato. The quick back-up and winning rider returning are positives, but a 103-start maiden record and 39 unplaced runs at this track and distance are hard to overlook.

Comes back from 3yo Maiden company at Sapporo, where she was 12th behind Red Regulus over 2000m after settling well back and making no impression. That followed a well-beaten last behind Wilson, so the recent figures are not pretty, with the drop back to 1200m also a point to note. The class drop is the strongest factor, and her top recent and distance ratings give her the clearest winning profile in this field.
