Kyoto Race 6 - Allowance Race
DOLCE RETURN (2) is a 16-start maiden who went close to shedding the tag last time when second over 2400m at Hanshin. Overdue and gets chance. TAMAMO LAMP (1) returned from a break of three months with a solid fifth last start at Chukyo over 2000m when he was prominent throughout. Gave a sight fresh and not beaten far. Among the top chances. L'OTTOBRATA (3) showed good early speed and raced on the pace last start before fading to finish fourth, beaten 4 lengths, over 1800m at Fukushima. Top chance on best figures. Another bold showing is expected. NIHONPIRO GOLDIE (6) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a fourth over 2600m at Fukushima. Has the talent to take this out.
