KYOTO DIRT   22 Feb 2025
 
GOING:

Maiden Race 1200m

Track:      

Abundant pace from Renenet, Seek The Dream and Indigo Azul vying for the lead with A Shin Panta Rhei on their backs. SEEK THE DREAM (14) produced a nice effort on debut in better company last start over 1600m at Tokyo Dirt when second, beaten a neck. Has a wide gate to overcome but he will prove tough to beat. A SHIN PANTA RHEI (4) finished sixth two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1200m at Kokura, beaten 1.3 lengths. Looks well placed so expect another big run. LORD VULCAN (10) resumes from a spell of 11 weeks. Could only manage to finish seventh at the latest run over 1200m at this track. Commenced last prep with a minor placing at this track over 1200m. Strong winning chance on best figures. RENENET (6) stepped out on her debut over 1400m at this track a week-and-a-half ago and finished seventh, beaten 12 lengths. Better for that run and can improve sharply.
