Sonoda Race 9

1700

Prize Money: $66,550

ALAN (1) is a talented type yet to taste defeat after three runs, the latest over 1400m at this track. Extra trip suits and on recent form will go close again. CRYSTAL PIT (2) resumed over 1700m at this track last start and finished fifth. Fitter for that run and expected to be in the finish this time. SIENA SKY (5) was right in contention when they turned for home and kept finding to finish second last start over 1400m at this track, beaten a neck. Wataru Hirose gets the best out of this three-year-old colt. Meets some better types this time but he has the talent to test this line-up. TOSHIKUN (6) had been in great form winning two on end before missing the frame last time when fifth over 1870m at this track. Should be prominent from the outset and can bounce back.
