HANSHIN DIRT   14 Jun 2026
 
GOING: G

Allowance Race 1200m

Track: GOOD      

Kanekome Family, Land Primero and Erika Verona will not hold back as they vie for the lead from Persephone and Arms Legend. ARMS LEGEND (11) returns from a spell of 11 weeks and did win first-up last time in work over 1200m at this track. Goes well fresh and at the course and distance. Expect a forward showing. GRANDE SFIDA (7) is close to breaking through, last start finishing just a nose away in second over 1200m at Niigata Dirt. Nicely placed to find winning ways. LOVE NEVER DIES (16) returns after a spell of 12 weeks. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 1200m at Kyoto Dirt. Among the better hopes. RED LEVENDIS (12) won at this track and distance at his last outing 11 weeks ago. Makes plenty of appeal.
