HAKODATE DIRT   07 Jul 2024
 
GOING: M

Allowance Race 1700m

Track:      

A keen early battle to ensue between Eclipse Ruban, The Rock and Danon Pedro from It's Only You. ECLIPSE RUBAN (8) came home strongly last start to finish third, beaten 1.3 lengths, over 1700m at this track when resuming after a spell. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Expecting a bold showing. LORD BLAZE (9) is a promising colt who last start finished 2.75 lengths away in fourth over 1700m at this track. Key chance expected to feature. ZENDAN SKY (5) resumed at this track over 1700m last time out and finished fourth, beaten 4 lengths. Fitter and rates highly. DANON PEDRO (1) resumes. Wasn't far away at last run before a break, finishing fourth over 1800m at Hanshin Dirt four months ago. Looks one of the genuine hopes in the race.
