HANSHIN DIRT 20 Dec 2025

Maiden Race 1400m Track: |
||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Fast tempo likely from Tiger Road going forward from out wide, with Astralion joining in. Not a great deal of depth to this race. FESTIVE DRESS (9) wasn't far off maiden success before a three-and-a-half-month spell, finishing the prep with a minor placing at this track. Expect she has come on over the break. Sure to go very well. STRADA (15) produced a fair effort on debut last time out when 3.5 lengths from the winner in fourth at Tokyo Dirt over 1600m. Anticipating sharp improvement with the run under the belt. RAINBOW STATE (10) ran a better race last time at his second career start when second over 1400m at Kyoto Dirt. Further improvement likely so keep him safe. JUDY IMERU (6) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1400m at Chukyo Dirt, beaten 4 lengths. Strong prospects.
