Morioka Race 2 - Race 2 - 1000
MIKINO HISTORY (6) Looked good when 2nd last run at the track but will be facing a significant drop in distance. Should jump out and bowl along. Showing improvement in recent outings. Respect in this event. IDIOM (1) Tidy effort when 2nd last run at this venue and has a nice advantage with a good gate. Has the ability to figure. GOLDEN SYRUP (3) On a short back up. Narrowly denied victory last run at this venue. Should get going late. Will be competitive. VIP REGIUS (8) Racing on a quick back up. Subpar when 9th last run at the track. Has the necessary speed to overcome the wide draw. Exotics chance.

Pressed forward and worked home evenly when second at this track last start, beaten four lengths by O K Smile as a short odds-on favourite. That was a clear step back in the right direction after finishing last in a B1 here behind Lily Correr. His record at this track and distance, plus five wins with this jockey, gives him a strong platform to rebound.

Has been well beaten at both recent runs, finishing seventh at this track last start when over 12 lengths from Mozu Gold Medal after giving away a start and only finishing fairly. She was also second last at Mizusawa the run prior after finding little from a handy spot. Past 1000m wins are noted, but current form leaves her with plenty to turn around.

Went within a nose of winning at this track last week, finishing second to Super Sister after settling well back and travelling strongly into the turn. He had been fourth to O K Smile seven days earlier, again respected in betting, so the form pattern is sound. The lack of a win from three tries at this track and distance is the knock, but he is racing well enough to go close again.

Resumed with a fifth at this track last week, beaten ten lengths by Taisei Domani after tracking the speed but failing to finish off. Her previous run was a fair B1 fifth at Mizusawa, so the recent form is serviceable rather than compelling. The key positive is her three wins from seven starts at this track and distance, which keeps her a realistic place hope.

Was close enough in the run at this track last start before dropping out to finish second last, beaten over 13 lengths by Mozu Gold Medal at big odds. The Mizusawa run prior was also plain, finishing last after failing to make any impression. Her track-and-distance record contains a win and seven placings, but recent efforts make her hard to support.

Has put two strong runs together, finishing second to Bellagio Hope at this track over 1400m after being just unable to hold on, following a C1 third at Mizusawa. She tackles around 1000m for the first time, so that is the only real question, but her record at this track is excellent and she reunites with a jockey who has been aboard for a win and two placings from three rides.

Finished sixth at this track last start, beaten over 12 lengths by Mozu Gold Medal after settling rearward and never getting into the race. The run prior was weaker again at Mizusawa, where he was beaten over 20 lengths. Weight relief and a light impost help his place claims, but he has to improve sharply on recent figures.

Had no obvious excuse when ninth at this track last week, beaten over 15 lengths by Taisei Domani after racing just off the lead and coming under pressure late. She had been sixth at Mizusawa before that after being near the top of an open market. Her broader 1000m record is strong and the quick back-up suits, but she profiles as an each-way fringe runner.

Has finished well back at this track in consecutive runs, most recently second last and beaten over 16 lengths by Taisei Domani after settling rearward and never looking likely. He was last behind Mozu Gold Medal the week before and was unwanted in the market. Even with a winning rider back aboard, his current form is well below what is required.

Drops back to a more suitable 1000m after finishing tenth over 1400m at this track, beaten seven lengths by Bellagio Hope when unable to close off. She had also been safely held at Mizusawa before that despite market respect. Three wins and five placings from 20 starts at this track and distance keep her in the place mix, but the win case is less convincing.
