HAKODATE DIRT   23 Jun 2024
 
GOING: G

Allowance Race 1700m

Track:      

Solid tempo with Cosmo Opinion leading from Grand Escape and Yorina Espoir. COSMO OPINION (9) has been in great form, winning six on end before back-to-back placings, the latest when beaten 2.5 lengths into third over 1700m at this track. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. PUFF (1) finished fifth last start beaten 11 lengths at Kyoto Dirt over 1800m. This easier and is a strong chance to take this.YORINA ESPOIR (7) registered his first win last start over 1700m at this track, getting home by 2.5 lengths. Re-unites with Yoshihiro Furukawa who was on board last start. Can go right on with the job now. GRAND ESCAPE (8) resumes here but showed enough when last in work to warrant serious consideration in a race like this.
