HANSHIN DIRT   19 Apr 2026
 
GOING:

Allowance Race 1200m

Track:      

Expecting a strong pace headed by Kattappa, Ecoro Levan and Three Cause. KATTAPPA (3) turned in a solid run when resuming last start over this course and distance, finishing third and beaten only 1.1 lengths. Likely to go forward from a nice draw. Yet to miss the frame in five starts including placing 2/2 this course and distance. Strong winning chance. LANCE OF KING (11) had been racing consistently, finishing in the money two races on end, until finishing fifth as favourite last time out over 1200m at this track. Has a win and three minor placings at this journey from five starts and is among the leading chances. ZENNO PHOTON (1) landed his maiden success over this course and distance last time, scoring by 4 lengths. Sparingly raced and has more to offer. Inside draw will assist and he is definitely worth including. MONT SAINT GOLDEN (4) was beaten 2 lengths into fourth over 1200m at this track three weeks ago. Nicely placed to find some form.
