SAPPORO DIRT   09 Aug 2025
 
GOING: M

Maiden Race 1700m

Track:      

A solid tempo on the cards with Intention taking charge. MISA BISCUITS (5) stalked the pace when resuming at this track and trip last start then worked to the line steadily to finish third. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Expecting a bold showing. KITANO HOSEKI (2) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 6 lengths when fifth in a 1700m contest at Hakodate Dirt six weeks ago after being prominent at the bend. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. QUEEN'S MACARON (6) finished third last time out over 1700m at Hakodate Dirt, making it two career minor placings and both at this journey. Sure to measure up. HELLO ANGEL (14) raced on the speed last time but couldn't finish the race off and clocked-in fifth over 1700m at this track. This looks a nice race so expect her to finish closer.
