Sonoda Race 9

1400

Prize Money: $23,792

KAWAKITA HOKU LEA (7) took advantage of the good draw and raced on the pace last start before tiring to finish fourth, beaten 7 lengths, over 1400m at this track. Likely to measure up. G T EIGHT (2) held on well to finish second last time out over 1400m at this track after leading for much of the way. Solid run last time and will take catching again. AS YOU LIKE (6) is putting together some solid results. Finished second at this track two starts back then landed the prize by 1.5 lengths last time out over 1400m at this track. Osamu Shimohara scored on her last time and retains the mount. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot score again. WIN GRAND BLEU (8) finished ninth over 3290m at Niigata at his most recent appearance on May 23. Lines up today for the first time for trainer Hiroyuki Tsuchiya. Worth plenty of thought.

Form hard to fault. Last start won by 1.5 len at this track July 15 over 1400m defeating Smile Clark carrying 55kg at $4.50. The race before that rolled along in front then was edged out late 2nd of 12 at this track on June 24 over 1400m, 1.0 len behind Valar carrying 56kg at $1.80. No reason she cannot salute again.
