Track Notes

Course Summary

Right-handed sprint course on Kokura’s compact, high-speed turf loop. The race opens with a short downhill drop and a long 500m opening straight before spiral curves through Corners 3 and 4. With a flat 293m final straight, front speed can carry very well.

Fun Facts

• The Kitakyushu Kinen is formally sponsored by TV Nishinippon Corporation.
• Kokura Racecourse is known for direct monorail access near the grandstands.
• The flat finish makes this much more speed-friendly than hill-heavy sprint tracks like Nakayama or Hanshin.
