NAKAYAMA DIRT   13 Apr 2025
 
GOING:

Maiden Race 1200m

Track:      

Expecting a solid tempo set up by Ryujin O crossing from the outside stall. TAKKA VALIANT (8) fought on for second last start over 1200m at this track, making it two minor placings in a row. Settles close to the speed. Nicely placed to take this out. MOZU REIRA COCONA (1) returned from a spell three weeks ago when she was beaten 4.5 lengths into eighth over 1400m at Chukyo. Strips fitter and can feature. RYUJIN O (16) was never really a threat when resuming last start over 1400m at Chukyo Dirt, finishing 17 lengths from the winner in 12th. Should be prominent despite the awkward gate. One of the main contenders. SUNRISE JUPITER (13) finished 5.5 lengths from the winner in sixth after being prominent at the turn at his most recent outing over 1400m at Hanshin Dirt. Finds a suitable assignment this time and can improve.
