TOKYO DIRT   16 Jun 2024
 
GOING: G

Maiden Race 1400m

Track: FIRM      

Brightia Dia is the likely leader from a wide gate. AMERICAN RUNNER (7) finished second as favourite last time out over 1400m at this track, making it five minor placings from five starts this time in work. Deserves to break through and will be tough to beat. TOMOJA CHATEAU (8) worked home well to grab second at his latest appearance here over 1400m. Good signs last time and cannot be dismissed. OTANISAN (12) is back after a break of three months. At the last run before the layoff he finished fifth over 1400m at Chukyo Dirt. One of the leading chances. BRIGHTIA DIA (11) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1400m at Tokyo, beaten 6 lengths after being prominent at the bend. Fitter this time and will prove hard to beat.
