SAPPORO DIRT   07 Sep 2025
 
GOING:

Maiden Race 1700m

Track:      

Good pace from Ashaka Luke, Tamamo Snow Dance and Ho O Samret going forward. HO O SAMRET (13) finished second last time over 1700m at this track to make it four minor placings from five career runs. Has been in the frame at all two runs over this trip. Will be handy despite the tricky draw. Best form puts him right in this. DURA ETERNO (8) drops back in trip after he was well held last time in eighth over 2000m at Sapporo. S Hamanaka has registered two minor placings when on board. Should be hard to stop. ENJOY DRIVE (5) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest at this track over 1700m. Can measure up again. RIDDLE TRIGGER (4) was prominent at the turn and finished second last start over 1700m at this track, beaten 6 lengths. Will benefit from that outing. Capable of another top-three outcome.
