KYOTO DIRT   05 May 2024
 
GOING: G

Allowance Race 1400m

Track: FIRM      

Photic should lead but there are a few other speedy types who can keep him honest. ROUGE CHAINON (2) last appeared five months ago when she finished a head from the winner in second over 1400m at Chukyo Dirt. Did finish in the money first-up last prep at Chukyo Dirt over 1400m. Expect a forward showing. DRAIG (16) resumed last time out and finished second over 1400m at Hanshin Dirt, beaten 1.3 lengths. Nicely placed and expected to go well. BLUE PECTOLITE (11) doesn't win out of turn but ran a much improved race last time second over 1400m at this track. Well placed this time and should play a big role. MERITITES (1) finished fifth last start, beaten 2.75 lengths at Fukushima Dirt over 1700m. Looks suited here and worth including.
