Saga Race 3 - Race 3 - 1300

FREE RETURN (4) was in commission last time out but disappointed in finishing fourth over 1400m at this track, beaten 3.5 lengths. Likely to be in the finish in this suitable assignment. HIKOBOSHI (11) last appeared two-and-a-half weeks ago over 1400m at Kanazawa when he finished fifth. This is his first run for the Toshimitsu Kunichi stable. Rates highly so expect him to be prominent. LIGHTNING RUN (12) has been out of the winner's list for a long time, last start finishing eighth at this track over 1300m after being prominent at the turn. Placed to advantage and can make amends. OKORIMBO MOMMY (8) finished 10 lengths away in fourth after being in contention on the turn at her last appearance over 1400m at this track on July 18. Worth including in this suitable contest.

At the latest run faded in the straight 6th of 12 at Morioka Dirt on July 21 over 1200m, 11 len behind Benefactor with 54kg at $15.50. The run before that tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 12 at Morioka Dirt on July 7 over 1200m, 12 len behind Moretsu carrying 54kg at $37.70. Low draw but others have better credentials.
