KYOTO DIRT   04 May 2025
 
GOING: FM

Allowance Race 1800m

Track: FIRM      

Tamamo Napoli and Stellar Splendour can pave the way. TAMAMO NAPOLI (2) was leading on the turn and fought on to finish third over 1800m at Chukyo Dirt at her latest appearance. Has a high cruising speed. Sure to be in the finish. STELLAR SPLENDOUR (5) is back from a spell of nine weeks. Closed last prep with a eighth, beaten 5.5 lengths, over 1700m at Kokura Dirt. Has the right profile. SNARK MEMORY (1) has been out of the winner's list for a long time, last start finishing sixth at Hanshin Dirt over 1800m after being prominent at the corner. Best figures measure up nicely. Can do a lot better. SHIGERU OTOHIME (7) turned in an eye-catching run over this journey last time, settling out the back before winding up late to finish 2 lengths away in fourth at Hanshin Dirt. Can play a role in the finish.

Third-up today and won third-up in the past. Freshened for 49 days. First-up sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 11 at this track on February 22 over 1800m, 1.0 len behind Blue Pectolite carrying 55.0kg at $3.60. Second run from a spell led but faded 3rd of 10 at Chukyo Dirt on March 16 over 1800m, 1.2 len behind Meisho Tamushiba carrying 56.0kg at $3.90. Can improve. Top chance if at her best.
