TOKYO DIRT   15 Jun 2025
 
GOING: M

Allowance Race 1600m

Track:      

Sizzling pace from Spade Un, Piko Ni and Sand Of Eter locking horns ahead of Philip Barows and Abrams. SPADE UN (15) performed above expectations last time over 1600m at this track, finishing one length from the winner in third after starting at huge odds. Has a high cruising speed. Expected to be in the finish. LE GRAND VENT (16) turned in a fine effort to score by half a length at this track and distance when first-up from a layoff last start. Taking on a better line-up this time but he can win again. PHILIP BAROWS (14) did a great job to score by a head over this course and distance last start which was an improvement on the first-up run. Meets some better types this time but he has the ability to test this field. SAND OF ETER (12) returned from a spell last start with a strong win by a head over 1600m at this track. Won at his only second-up appearance and is worth including.
