Hanshin Race 6 - Allowance Race

GOLDEN BALANCE (1) looks to launch this prep the way he ended the last nine weeks ago when he scored over 1400m at this track. Has further upside. Ideally placed to score. MEISHO KAKUUCHI (11) opened this campaign last start with a third, beaten 1.75 lengths, over 1400m at Kyoto Dirt. Fitter again and a winning hope. MAME TANK (3) impressed when successful as favourite on debut over 1200m at Kyoto Dirt four-and-a-half months ago and has not raced since. On speed and too strong before being put away again.Will come on following that run and looks a definite threat. LUCKY BUCK (10) turned in a modest performance when fourth last time out over 1400m at Kyoto Dirt, beaten 3.5 lengths, after a win at Kyoto Dirt at the previous outing. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time.

Back from a spell. Only had one start last campaign scored a big 7 len win at this track December 20 over 1400m defeating Judy Imeru carrying 56.0kg at $13.80. When resuming last campaign ran last of 16 at Kyoto Dirt on October 12 over 1800m, 35 len behind Tamamo Freesia carrying 56.0kg at $5. Won only start last time in which was only try this course and distance. Look for a bold run.

Third race start. Promising on debut as favourite; won by a head at Kyoto Dirt November 2 over 1400m defeating Ailes Dorees carrying 56.0kg at $5.30. Went for a spell before returning 3rd of 12 at Kyoto Dirt on February 7 over 1400m, 1.75 len behind Smart Julius with 57.0kg at $2.10. Fitter again and a winning hope.
