Morioka Race 4 - Race 4 - 1400
NAMURA DEGAS (4) Honest race when 2nd last time around here and solid career start. Should muster plenty of early toe. Racing consistently this preparation. Should be right in the finish. AJAIB (5) On a short back up. Claimed a tight victory last run at this venue and form has been improving over recent runs. Must be considered. KUNG FU HERO (7) On a short turnaround. Placed 3rd last run at this track. Has run into the money 4 from 4 attempts this preparation. Should get going late. Definite claims. GOLD ORIS (2) On a short back up. Finished 4th last start at this track but has a positive alley. Capable of a running a place.

Settled rearward and never threatened when eighth in C1 at this track last start, beaten over 14 lengths as one of the outsiders. The start prior was weaker again, finishing last to Yakujo and well held at long odds. Eases from C1 to C2 and has won at around 1400m, but six unplaced runs at this track and distance leave her with plenty to turn around.

Backs up after 6 days and comes off a better effort than the margin suggests, running fourth at this track after giving them a long start and keeping on, though beaten over 12 lengths. He was fifth in C1 company the start prior and has enough 1400m grounding, with two wins and eight placings at around the trip. The long win drought tempers the case, but his profile is sound for a minor cheque.

Third-up now, but the two runs this campaign have not offered enough. He was well beaten at long odds last start and had been last in C1 at this track the start prior after coming under pressure late. He has placed twice from seven starts at around 1400m, yet remains winless from 15 overall and must produce a clear form turnaround to trouble the better-credentialed runners.

Lightly raced and still building a strong profile, he went under as a prohibitive odds-on favourite last start but was beaten only half a length after being pipped by Noble Brow. The run prior was a strong win at this track, beating G T Hirari by two and a half lengths with plenty in reserve. Two wins and one place from three starts here, plus Ryo Kobayashi's excellent record aboard, make him the runner they have to beat.

Comes through a clean last-start win at this venue, tracking the leader and finding enough to beat Satono Avalon by a neck as an odds-on favourite over 1200m. That followed a third behind Venus Kic, when she was big odds but still worked home evenly. The quick return suits, and with one win and two places from five starts at this track, her current form keeps her right in the winning mix.

Worked home fairly from a long way back when fifth at this track last start, but the margin was still over 14 lengths and she was big odds. Her previous run at Mizusawa in B2 grade was also well below what is required, beaten over 16 lengths after being swamped late. A track-and-distance win and Shion Sasaki's return are positives, but she has to find much more.

Backs up after 6 days following a third at this track, where he was sent out favourite and worked home evenly to be beaten just under four lengths. His previous 1200m win was decisive, putting Koshitantan away by two and a half lengths at a very short odds-on quote. One win and two places from three starts at this venue gives him a solid base, although he shapes more as a first-four anchor than a clear top pick.
