TOKYO DIRT   08 Jun 2025
 
GOING: G

HACHIOJI TOKUBETSU 1400m

Track: GOOD      

Furaha should lead but there are a few other speedy types who can keep her honest. PHILIP (13) led last time and gave a great sight but was beaten a nose at this track over 1400m last time out. Honest entire with a super record at this distance and looks a great chance to score. NOVA EXPRESS (1) is a promising type who finished in the placings over 1200m at Nakayama Dirt at his last appearance on March 22 which was the only run of that campaign. Should be in the finish. STEELBLUE (6) returned from a break last start and was having her first run on dirt for a new stable when beaten 2.75 lengths into fourth over 1400m at this track. Should park just off the speed. One of the main contenders. MOZU NICE BODY (15) finished third last time over 1400m at Kyoto Dirt when resuming from a spell, beaten 4.5 lengths. Likely improver with winning claims.
