TOKYO DIRT   13 Jun 2026
 
GOING:

Maiden Race 1600m

Track:      

Honey Jo can work over from a wide draw to lead. HONEY JO (10) resumed from a spell last start with a sound third over 1400m at Tokyo. Made up plenty of ground in the final stages that day so the extra 200m looks ideal. Ready to go a couple better. INTO THE WIND (7) is a three-year-old colt facing the starter for the first time. Out of Group 3 winner Illuminance. Respect any positive market activity. SANGRANT (8) stepped out on his debut over 1600m at this track four weeks ago and finished sixth, beaten 4 lengths. Likely improver who can feature in the finish. KITANO DON CARLO (11) impressed last time out at the second run of the campaign, clocking in 2.5 lengths from the winner in third over 1600m at this track. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run.
