TOKYO DIRT   22 Jun 2025
 
GOING:

Maiden Race 2100m

Track:      

Expecting a strong gallop with Fireworks and Emergence taking up the running over Brother Beat. EMERGENCE (15) is yet to break through after five starts. Placed two back then last time out was fourth, beaten 3.5 lengths, over 2100m at this track. Should be prominent throughout. Overdue and shapes as a leading chance this line-up. MABU AND FER (11) finished second last time out over 2100m at this track, making it two career minor placings, both at today's distance. Top chance to break through. COOK PINE (5) faced the starter for the first time and finished sixth last start at Tokyo over 2000m, beaten 4 lengths. Will take a lot from that last run and is worth following up. HAWK LIGHT (8) is racing well and has registered four minor placings in a row, last time out finishing third over 2100m at this track. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race.
