FUKUSHIMA DIRT   06 Jul 2025
 
GOING: G

Allowance Race 1150m

Track: FIRM      

Plenty of speed runners engaged, with Show Mosh, Prime Blue and Okoju prominent. CHEVAL BONHEUR (5) resumes after a break of five months. Won on debut to launch the last campaign over 1200m at Nakayama Dirt. Best fresh figures put her right in this. PIKO TENDER (1) is a talented filly who has been in the money at both appearances. Has not been produced since she scored over 1200m at Nakayama Dirt on March 16. Inside draw will assist so a big return is on the cards. SHOW MOSH (10) is back from a spell of 11 weeks. Scored a good win at his final run last preparation at Nakayama Dirt over 1200m. One to consider. ECORO CADIZ (8) is a progressive three-year-old colt who resumes from a break of three-and-a-half months, his last appearance being a win over 1200m at Nakayama Dirt at his only run of that campaign. In the mix.
