HAKODATE DIRT   14 Jun 2025
 
GOING:

Allowance Race 1000m

Track:      

Lots of speed predominantly from Bulldog King, Ecoro Leona and Geku. TAKKA G T (5) is a promising type who hasn't raced since finishing 4.5 lengths away in fifth over 1200m at Nakayama Dirt on March 30. Reunites with Takeshi Yokoyama which is a proven winning combination. Well placed and should be in the finish. BULLDOG KING (11) is back at the races for the first time since March 2. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 1000m at Kokura Dirt. Rates highly and makes plenty of appeal. ECORO LEONA (4) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 12 lengths when 13th over 1200m at Hanshin Dirt eight weeks ago after being in contention on the bend. Back from an eight-week let-up and is good enough to take this out. MIKKI SPINACH (8) produced a good run two starts back to finish third but was below par last time when out of the placings at Fukushima Dirt over 1150m. Yet to miss the placings in three starts over this course and distance. In the mix.
