TOKYO DIRT   25 Apr 2026
 
GOING:

Allowance Race 1600m

Track: FIRM      

Strong pace with Take On Me and Realize Tachyon crossing from wide out. ZAAFIR (8) is a progressive three-year-old colt who hasn't raced since finishing second over 1600m at this track on February 15 which was the only run of that prep. Goes well when fresh including a win and two minor placings. Rates highly and expected to go well. B B CLOSER (10) resumed over 1400m last time out and turned in a solid effort to finish second at Hanshin Dirt after he gave away a big start. Won't be bothered by this longer journey. Serious threat. VOCALIZE (3) did his best work late to get up for fourth when resuming from a spell last start over 1800m at Hanshin Dirt, beaten 4.5 lengths. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. STELLA DE LUX (5) was safely held when 12th last start over 1800m at Nakayama Dirt, beaten 10 lengths after a good win on debut at this track. Can make amends.
