KOKURA   12 Jul 2025
 
GOING:

Allowance Race 1200m

Track: STANDARD      

Snow Silence, Danon Monte Rosa and Tamamo Brown Tie to battle for the lead at a strong tempo. SNOW SILENCE (6) strode forward early from her wide draw over 1000m at Kokura Dirt when fresh from a spell last time, leading for much of the way before being claimed in the straight to finish third, beaten 4.5 lengths. Will take catching. DANON MONTE ROSA (17) is a progressive four-year-old gelding who hasn't raced since finishing second over 1200m at this track on February 22 which was the only run of that prep. Has scored first-up from a spell before. Best form puts him right in this. D S TOKKI (7) finished second last time over 1200m at this track, beaten 2.5 lengths. Likely improver with winning claims. TAMAMO BROWN TIE (14) failed to threaten when fresh from a spell last time out, beaten 6 lengths into 11th over 1200m at Kyoto. Has good early speed so should take up a forward position. Solid claims on best form.
