KASHIKOJIMA TOKUBETSU 1400m Track: |

|---|---|---|---|---|
|
A strong tempo from Bandito and G T Espi pressing forward along with Holy Blossom. HOLY BLOSSOM (10) is a promising type who finished in the placings over 1400m at Hanshin at her last appearance on June 8 which was the only run of that campaign. Has a strong fresh record including a win and one minor placings. Likely to push forward and race on the pace. Among the leading chances. BURGTOR (8) returns from a layoff of 11 weeks. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over 1600m at this track. Has ability and should be right in the finish. G T ESPI (1) is back from a spell of six-and-a-half months. Closed last prep as a winner, taking out a 1200m contest at Kokura by 1.5 lengths. Strong top-three chance. MONTALCINO (6) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a spell on 24/05/2025, finishing ninth and beaten 10 lengths over 1600m at Kyoto. Sure to make his presence felt.
