KYOTO DIRT   23 Jun 2024
 
GOING: S

Maiden Race 1800m

Track: SOFT      

Strong early tempo from Pinnesiri out of the inside draw, joined in the early tussle by Yamanin Brighten and Daimei Otohime. WORKING ASSET (14) finished 5.5 lengths adrift in fourth when tackling a dirt track for the first time last start over this track and trip. Y Kawada stays on and although yet to win has been in the money on two occasions. Leading contender. ALBERIC (15) resumed from a spell last start with a sound second over 1800m here. Likely improver with bright prospects. GABRIEL AQUA (4) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1800m at this circuit beaten 5.5 lengths. Fitter this time. Hard to beat in this suitable race. RICEBERRY (2) finished third last start at the first run back from a spell over 1800m at this venue beaten 2 lengths. Likely improver with strong prospects.
