HANSHIN DIRT   19 Apr 2025
 
GOING: G

Maiden Race 1800m

Track:      

Keen pace from Alethia, Happy Dream and Top Lady. GIRLS DAY OUT (11) is a four-start maiden who looks close to breaking the duck after finishing in the placings at her last couple of runs, most recently when a neck away in second over 1800m at this track. Top chance. ALETHIA (12) made her debut last start at a big quote but defied the market to grab second, beaten 5 lengths, over 1800m at this track. Open to sharp improvement and can get off the mark this time. ANGE HARDI (14) showed good early speed from the inside draw when fresh from a spell last time out, leading for home before finding a couple better over 1800m at this track. Well-placed and expected to feature again. HAPPY DREAM (13) has not appeared since she finished second on debut over 1800m at Nakayama Dirt on January 25. One of the key contenders.

Last start failed to make an impression; 5th of 12 at Chukyo Dirt on March 30 over 1800m, 6 len behind Marine with 52.0kg at $4.20. The start before that led but faded 2nd of 16 at Chukyo Dirt on March 15 over 1800m, 3 len behind Salice carrying 52.0kg at $249.20. Can do a lot better than that last run.
