SAPPORO DIRT   26 Jul 2025
 
GOING:

Maiden Race 1700m

Track:      

Solid tempo likely with Taisei Vainqueur, Kinsen O and Olopatadine prominent. DYAUS (12) finished third as favourite last time out over 1400m at Kyoto Dirt, making it three minor placings from three starts this time in work. Has a wide gate but he should be involved in the finish. OTACHI (5) missed the placings when resuming two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1700m at Hakodate Dirt, beaten 3 lengths. Nicely placed to find winning ways. G T TRUE (2) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third over 1700m at Hakodate Dirt. Likely improver with strong prospects. FUZZY LOP (11) was safely held when resuming last start over 1800m at Hakodate, finishing seventh and beaten 7 lengths. Should do much better.
