HAKODATE DIRT   14 Jun 2026
 
GOING:

TSUGARUKAIKYO TOKUBETSU 1700m

Track:      

Genuine pace with Air Nigella taking up the running ahead of Dyaus and Rey Zario. DYAUS (4) showed good early pace last time and battled on gamely to finish just a nose from the winner in second over 1800m at Niigata Dirt when first-up from a spell. Just missed fresh and expected to go one better. MEISHO TIEPIN (8) was out of the money when resuming two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1600m at Tokyo Dirt, beaten 3 lengths into fifth. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. AIR NIGELLA (5) returns from the paddock after closing last prep with two consecutive wins, the most recent over 1800m at Hanshin Dirt. Can pick up where she left off. JUN LA TOUR (12) missed the placings two runs back then did well last start but found a couple better over 1700m at Fukushima Dirt, beaten only a long neck. Nicely placed to give this a mighty shake.
