Morioka Race 11 - Race 11 - 1800
DIONIS (3) gets first call after beating SOLARO at Mizusawa last start, sent out favourite and scoring by just under two lengths. The 1800m record is still to be ticked off, but his broader profile is clearly the strongest: five wins from eight overall, two wins from four at this track and strong recent-season figures. OUT THE LAW (2) is the main danger after resuming with a determined Mizusawa win over 1600m, beating Real Line as favourite, though he also has an unplaced prior try around this distance. SOLARO (5) has been highly consistent, chasing DIONIS home last time after a narrow B1 defeat at this venue, so he appeals as the reliable place and upset chance if the top pair leave the door open. COMBAT CAMO (6) brings a different profile, coming off an eye-catching fourth at big odds after a dominant B2 win at Mizusawa, and her track record gives her enough substance to press for a placing.

Returns from a four-month break after ending last campaign with a distant third at this track, working home past tired runners but still beaten over 10 lengths by Legend Barows. The start prior was a fifth at Mizusawa, beaten over 13 lengths after settling rearward. His overall and track records are sound, but recent margins leave him with plenty to find against sharper opposition.

Resumed with a determined Mizusawa win over 1600m, sent out favourite and driving hard late to beat Real Line by a length. That was a good response after he loomed and failed to go on with it as odds-on favourite two starts ago. The move to 1800m is the query, with one previous try around the trip for no placing, but his winning return and solid recent record make him a major threat.

Returns off a five-week freshening after winning at Mizusawa over 1600m, starting favourite and beating Solaro by just under two lengths. He is unplaced from one try around 1800m, but that query is outweighed by a deep profile: five wins from eight overall, two wins from four at this track and the winning rider stays aboard. Third-up and in winning form, he sets the standard here.

Made late ground when sixth at Mizusawa last start, but the margin was still over 12 lengths and there was no clear excuse. Her previous run was much better, winning a B2 at this venue by two lengths as a dominant odds-on favourite. The concern is the 1800m record, with five previous starts around the trip for no wins or placings, so she profiles as a rough place hope only.

Returns off a five-week freshening in consistent form, having chased home Dionis at Mizusawa when beaten just under two lengths. He had earlier missed by a head in a B1 at this venue as favourite, so the current form line is reliable. A previous placing around 1800m keeps the trip suitable enough, but he still has to turn the tables on the top pick to win.

Worked home in eye-catching fashion for fourth at Mizusawa last start, despite starting among the outsiders and being beaten over 11 lengths. That followed a dominant B2 win at Mizusawa, where she scored by four lengths as a well-supported favourite. With one win and two places from five starts at this track, she has enough substance to be a genuine placing chance.

Has been holding her form with consecutive thirds at Mizusawa, though the margins were just over six lengths last start and just over eight lengths two back when short odds-on favourite. She has placed twice from four attempts around 1800m and owns a perfect place record from three starts at this track. Honest profile, but she will have to find a sharper finish to win this.

Worked home evenly for second at Mizusawa last start, but was beaten six lengths at long odds. The run prior was a plain ninth at Kochi, beaten over 15 lengths after being in touch before fading out. She has one placing from six previous starts around 1800m and is first time at this track, so a bigger finishing effort is required.
