Allowance Race 1400m Track: YIELDING |

|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Expecting a strong gallop with Win Twilight and Red Kingly taking up the running over Danon Lyra. RED KINGLY (9) is a promising type who hasn't raced since finishing 11 lengths away in eighth over 1800m in the G3 Tokinominoru Kinen at this track on February 16 which was the only run of that prep. Has won when fresh from a spell in the past. Likely to push forward and race on the pace. Best form puts him right in this. PEARLY LUSTER (3) missed the placings two starts back when resuming then ran a better race and finished 1.1 lengths away in fourth last time out over 1600m at Nakayama after being prominent at the bend. Nicely placed to get the prize. WIN TWILIGHT (6) wasted no time getting off the mark as favourite on debut over 1400m at Tokyo Dirt 11 weeks ago and has not appeared since. Likely improver with bright prospects again. DANON LYRA (4) won at this track and distance at her last outing 11 weeks ago. Makes plenty of appeal.
