Sonoda Race 6

1400

Stake: $14,263

SHINE CHOUCHOU (2) Fought on gamely when winning last time at Himeji and gets a favourable gate. Amongst the placegetters at every start this campaign and showing improvement in recent outings. One of the major players. CRIMSON RED (6) Honest race when 2nd last start at Himeji. Jockey Tomohiro Yoshimura adds value. Showing great form since coming back from a break. Will be around the mark at odds. ECONOMICA (8) Finished 5th last start at Himeji. Looks to be value. EL MIRAGE (10) Came in 5th last start at Himeji. Can surprise and by no means out of it.

Third-up today. First-up came from midfield; 2nd of 10 at Himeji on February 10 over 1400m, 1.3 len behind Hero F A with 53kg at $1.20. Second-up favourite; ran on from midfield and won by a head at Himeji February 27 over 1400m defeating Meisho Magoichi with 55kg at $1.70. Profiles nicely. Top chance.

At the latest run failed to make an impression; 5th of 10 at Himeji on February 25 over 1400m, 6 len behind Tapuchan carrying 55kg at $17.40. The race before that won by a neck at Himeji February 3 over 1400m defeating Cavalier Quest carrying 55kg at $4. Plenty to like about her prospects.

Most recently sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 5th of 10 at Himeji on March 3 over 1400m, 6 len behind Tomoja Eve with 57kg at $19.60. Before that raced behind the speed prior to fading 8th of 10 at Himeji on February 12 over 1400m, 11 len behind Gaspard with 57kg at $21.70. Going well. Leading chance.
