SAPPORO DIRT   31 Aug 2025
 
GOING: G

Maiden Race 1000m

Track:      

Strong tempo assured with Coccolare, Zhende Anemos and Elele Lanakila rolling to the front. TAISEI ABILITY (1) is close to a win after a string of minor placings, the latest when second over 1000m at this track. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. STELLA NOVA (3) has recorded four minor placings from five starts to date, the latest when second over 1000m at this track. Nicely drawn so he looks a top contender again. COCCOLARE (10) is a nine-start maiden who finished fifth after being in contention on the corner at her most recent appearance over 1000m at this track. Looks to be in the right race to play a big role. RYUJIN O (8) raced below his best last time when seventh over 1700m at Hakodate Dirt, beaten 7 lengths. Open to improvement and should be about the money.
