KOKURA DIRT   13 Jul 2025
 
GOING:

Maiden Race 1700m

Track:      

Genuine pace with Lokahi, Hakkoichiu and Mavors leading the way. MOZU FLASH (1) is close to breaking through after finishing second last start over 1400m at Hanshin Dirt when she was handy all the way. Has her share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. MAVORS (5) met with solid support when resuming last start over 1800m at Hanshin Dirt when second, beaten 2.5 lengths. Kohei Matsuyama has registered three minor placings when on board. Among the leading chances. LOKAHI (15) finished 0.8 lengths from the winner in third when resuming and tackling a dirt track for the first time last start over today's course and distance. Capable of testing this field. HAKKOICHIU (3) ran below expectations last time at Hanshin Dirt, finishing fifth and beaten 5 lengths. Worth another chance.
