HAKODATE DIRT   29 Jun 2024
 
GOING: G

Allowance Race 1700m

Track: STANDARD      

Model Hunt should lead but there are a few other speedy types who can keep her honest. WAY TO GO (8) didn't do a bad job to finish a neck away in second last start over 1700m at this track, coming from next to last at one stage. That followed a first-up win at Kyoto Dirt. Major player again. EDEL (5) finished third when resuming from a spell last start over 1700m at this track. Sparingly raced filly who is perfectly placed to score. NEVERMORE (11) broke her maiden last start over 1700m at this track when resuming, scoring by 2 lengths. Re-unites with Fujioka who was on board last start. Must be respected now that the penny has dropped. MODEL HUNT (6) returned from a spell two weeks ago when she was in the firing line on the corner before being beaten 6 lengths into sixth over 1700m at this track. Strips fitter and can improve.
