NAKAYAMA DIRT   20 Dec 2025
 
GOING:

Allowance Race 1200m

Track:      

Solid tempo likely from Dunkeld and Reve Legend. PIKO TENDER (4) has been about the money with five minor placings from six starts this campaign, the latest a solid second over 1200m at this track. Should camp just off the leaders. Best form puts her clearly on top. DUNKELD (1) is back after a break of three-and-a-half months. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 1400m at Tokyo. Should be hard to stop. TARTE POIRE (7) was in the firing line on the corner and finished second last time over 1150m at Fukushima Dirt when resuming from a spell, beaten one length. Placed to advantage so expect another forward showing. SILFLAY (11) resumes from a spell of ten weeks. Has filled a minor placing at each of her three first-up runs. Will be thereabouts.
