Sonoda Race 8

1400

Stake: $29,037

CRESCO TAISHI (2) resumes after a break of five months. Looking to emulate his debut win over 1400m at this track to kick off last prep. Expected to go well. KIMINO KACHIDOKI (6) is a 12-start maiden who finished sixth at his most recent appearance over 1700m at this track after he gave away a big start. This looks a nice race so expect him to be in the finish. MISTRAL PINK (5) finished out of the money when fifth in a 1230m contest at this track three-and-a-half weeks ago. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time. TSUKIMUSUBI (4) is fitter for two runs back from a spell, progressing nicely last time to finish fourth at Himeji over 1500m. Deserves respect on best figures.

At the latest run 6th of 12 at this track on March 12 over 1400m, 9 len behind Kichi Griffon with 54kg at $18.60. The start before that didn't do much in the run home; 5th of 7 at Himeji on February 6 over 1800m, 15 len behind Shana O with 54kg at $14. Will need to improve many lengths to feature.

Third-up today. Not raced for 37 days. Resuming second last in a small field at Himeji on January 30 over 1800m, 9 len behind Bellagio Dream with 54kg at $17.30. Second run from a spell 4th of 8 at Himeji on February 25 over 1500m, 6 len behind Wings All carrying 55kg at $30.80. Capable of a big finish so don't write her off.

Useful type. Most recently eased back early on 5th of 9 at this track on March 11 over 1230m, 4.5 len behind Satono Rendezvous with 53kg at $4.60. The start before that 9th of 12 at Himeji on January 23 over 1400m, 34 len behind Drive Away carrying 54kg at $44.90. Capable of more – worth another chance.

Comments

Useful filly. Returns from a 36-day let-up. Last start second last in a small field at Himeji on February 26 over 1500m, 10 len behind Smart Exceed with 54kg at $9.30. The race before that held ground to the line 3rd of 8 at Himeji on January 22 over 1400m, 1.75 len behind Setting Sun with 54kg at $23. Cannot be ruled out despite a moderate effort last time.

Expected Settling Position: Midfield
