TOKYO DIRT   23 Jun 2024
 
GOING: M

Allowance Race 1400m

Track:      

Expecting Alps Ojo to set a genuine tempo after crossing from wide out. ALPS OJO (15) turned in a fine effort to score by 2 lengths at today's track and distance last start in a nice progression on the first-up run. Meeting a tougher field but on her best form she is one of the chief contenders. TOSEN SAUDADE (10) has a moderate winning strike-rate but performed well last time here finishing fourth and only 2 lengths from the winner at the end of 1400m. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. BARONE (7) returned from a spell four weeks ago when she was beaten 1.1 lengths into fifth over 1400m at this venue. Fitter so anticipating a better run this time. UNIVERS (16) was in the firing line on the corner and finished third last start at the first run back from a spell over 1400m at this circuit beaten 1.3 lengths. Placed to advantage so expect a forward showing.
