TOKYO DIRT   23 Jun 2024
 
GOING: M

Allowance Race 2100m

Track:      

Slick tempo with Amoureux De Paris to lead but under plenty of pressure in a keen early contest. AMOUREUX DE PARIS (7) finished just half a length from the winner in second last start over 2100m at this track after racing handy. Best figures measure up and is sure to run well. REAL BEGINNING (9) raced on the speed and kept going to score by a neck last time out over 2100m here. Meeting a deeper field this time but he is good enough to play a major role. MOUNTAIN ACE (13) settled well back last time then wound up strongly in the straight to finish third over today's journey at this circuit. Solid top-three prospects. GROVER TESORO (2) resumes in a similar race to his last run nine weeks ago when he scored by 3 lengths. Can make his presence felt.
