NAKAYAMA DIRT   12 Apr 2026
 
GOING:

Maiden Race 1200m

Track:      

Decent sized field but it lacks any obvious pace. TRUSTIA (5) stepped out for her debut over 1600m at Tokyo back on February 1 and finished ninth, beaten 6 lengths. Drew off the track and couldn't finish it off then spelled again. Likely to play a major role. ECORO BOLT (14) returned from a spell three weeks ago when he was in the firing line on the corner before being beaten 12 lengths into fifth over 1400m at Chukyo Dirt. Likely improver with strong prospects. GRASS RICKEY (13) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1200m at this track, beaten 4.5 lengths after being in contention on the turn. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. BANDAM SOLAIRE (7) finished 6 lengths from the winner in fourth at his most recent outing over 1200m at Hanshin Dirt. This looks a nice race so expect him to finish closer.
