HAKODATE DIRT   30 Jun 2024
 
GOING: G

Maiden Race 1700m

Track: FIRM      

Plenty of early pace from Romance Theater, Feasibility and June Surrender primarily. SUNRISE SHEER (1) showed good early muster and fought on to finish second when resuming last start over 1700m at this track. Should enjoy a good run just off the speed. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. FEASIBILITY (6) is a seven-start maiden who is knocking on the door, the latest effort a solid third at Tokyo Dirt over 1600m after being in contention on the bend. Big chance to open his account. TOMOJA CHATEAU (8) is yet to break through after nine starts. Placed two back then last time out was fourth, beaten 6 lengths, over 1400m at Tokyo Dirt. Should be parked just off the speed. Solid top-three chance. PRASENTIER (11) ran below expectations last start, finishing seventh and beaten 12 lengths at this track over 1700m. Should be competitive in this suitable race.
