Kokura Race 1 - Maiden Race
THE HUNT (5) missed the placings when resuming at Chukyo Dirt two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1700m at this track, beaten 2 lengths. Likely improver with strong prospects. BLACK TARO (10) debuted three weeks ago when he finished fourth over 1400m at Kyoto Dirt, beaten 3.5 lengths. Much better for that run and can get off the mark this time. SNARK MESSNER (3) resumes from a spell of five months. Could only manage to finish fourth at the latest run over 1200m at Chukyo Dirt. Strong winning chance on best figures. GOLD DYER (4) has raced twice. Was third on debut then clocked-in 9 lengths from the winner in sixth last time out over 1800m at Chukyo Dirt. Drawn to go forward. Can do better. Solid top-three hope.
