HANSHIN DIRT   14 Jun 2026
 
GOING: G

SAKASEGAWA TOKUBETSU 1800m

Track: GOOD      

Moderate tempo with Vent Agreable leading the way and a few others keeping in touch. MEISHO KOMACHI (5) had a bit on her rivals when first-up from a spell most recently, recording an impressive win over 1800m at Kyoto Dirt. Will appreciate the drop in the weights. In form and pay to follow up. VENT AGREABLE (8) was well fancied last time but could only manage second over 1800m at this track. Kept fresh since the last run. Will prove tough to beat. HAGINO CORAZON (1) is putting together some solid results. Finished second at this track two starts back then landed the prize by 3.5 lengths as public elect last time out over 1800m at Niigata Dirt. This looks a sterner test than last time but on current form she is one of the chief contenders. EYE BLINK (6) is back after a break of 11 weeks. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 1800m at Kyoto Dirt. Looks one of the genuine hopes in the race.
