Morioka Race 7 - Race 7 - 1400
NEVER LOOK BACK (5) Tidy run when 3rd last time at the track and solid career start. Going well this preparation. Should be right in the finish. YUYU CORAZON (6) In the money when 2nd last start around here. Looking sharp on the track this campaign. Jockey Shion Sasaki has been successful previously. Can get the job done. BOBBINET (8) Underperformed when 11th last time here. Well placed and has solid claims. SETSUNASA (9) Finished 4th last time at this venue. Has the potential to improve sharply. Has the speed to overcome the wide barrier. Exhibiting good form since resuming from a break. Can win this.

Second-up after a plain sixth at this track, where she was beaten over 13 lengths by Positive Spin at long odds and was only fair through the line. The prior Mizusawa run was no better, finishing ninth and beaten over 15 lengths after conceding a big start. Weight relief and a track-and-trip win give her a case for improvement, but recent form keeps her more in the minor-money bracket.

Made some late ground when sixth at this track last start, although the final margin was still over 13 lengths and he started big odds. Two back he was an odds-on favourite in C2 grade at Mizusawa but tired into third behind Curren Leciel Bleu. He has placed often enough with Yuri Takahashi to stay in calculations, though the win record and latest margin limit the confidence.

Was never a factor when ninth at this track last start, beaten a long way by Yakujo after conceding a big start and being unwanted in the market. Her previous C2 fifth at Mizusawa was more competitive, but she was still beaten six and a half lengths at big odds. With only one placing from twelve at this track and distance, she has to lift sharply.

Finished ninth at this track last start, beaten over 17 lengths by Heroic Tale after conceding a big start and never getting into the race. That followed a seventh in C2 grade at Mizusawa when beaten over 14 lengths and unwanted in betting. She is unplaced from six attempts at this track and distance, so the current form leaves a sizeable task.

Held third at this track last start, beaten eight lengths by Yakujo after being near the top of betting, and that run still reads solidly in the context of this race. Her previous C2 win at this venue was decisive, beating Na Zdravi by a long way after travelling well in front. With two wins from five overall and a strong record with Tatsunori Sugawara, she has a compelling winning case.

Comes through a strong last-start second at this track, beaten two and a half lengths by Star Admiral after being sent out favourite and fighting hard to the line. He had also been sound in C2 grade at Mizusawa when third behind Sirius, so the recent form is consistent. One win and two places from three at this track and distance, plus an excellent rider record, make him the one to beat.

Closed off strongly from an impossible position when seventh at this track last start, which was better than the beaten margin of over 15 lengths suggests. The run prior at Mizusawa was also encouraging, charging home to be fourth over 850m and beaten two and a half lengths. She has won at this track and distance and looks a genuine danger if the race develops to suit her late finish.

Offered little after finding a suitable spot last start, finishing second last at this track and beaten over 17 lengths by Star Admiral. Her Mizusawa fourth before that had more merit, making good late ground despite being beaten six and a half lengths. The place statistics are respectable, but she remains winless from 15 starts and must rebound strongly.

Led and held on for fourth at this track last start, beaten six and a half lengths by Heroic Tale at generous odds. His previous B2 run at Mizusawa was plain, finishing eighth and beaten over 14 lengths after tracking the speed without quickening. He remains a maiden, but four placings from nine starts and a perfect place record with Ryo Takamatsu keep him in the minor claims.

Worked home evenly for third at this track last start, beaten six and a half lengths by Heroic Tale despite starting at big odds. His previous C2 fourth at Mizusawa was similar, closing from a rearward position without threatening the winner. A strong bank of track-and-distance experience helps, but at this stage he looks more a minor-place chance than a winning option.

Returns from a one-month freshening after finishing second last at Mizusawa, beaten over 17 lengths by Pensee at big odds and fading late. The run prior was also poor, finishing second last behind Grand Croix and well held after again weakening late. He is unplaced in 21 starts at this track and distance, which makes him hard to recommend.
