Sonoda Race 9 - Race 9 - 1870

MYSTERY BOX (6) couldn't have been more impressive first up last start when he scored comfortably over 1700m at this track. Will be better for that latest run and looks sure to run well again. Can make it back-to-back wins. OZMOPOLITAN (4) made it four minor placings in a row last start when third over 1700m at this track after being in the firing line all the way. Settles close to the speed. Going up a level this time but she is good enough to play a major role. MEISHO SHIMATO (3) was safely held when third last start at this track. That followed a good first-up win at this track. Yet to miss the placings from 17 starts at this track. Nicely placed to play a pivotal role. MARU GURIDDO (5) won at this track and distance at her last outing ten weeks ago. Among the better hopes.

Recent form sound. Resumes off a 48 day let-up. At the latest run tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 11 at this track on May 2 over 1700m, 2.25 len behind Vina Ha Long with 55kg at $2.30. Before that ran on from midfield; 2nd of 12 at this track on April 10 over 1870m, 0.5 len behind Maru Guriddo with 55kg at $1.80. Plenty to like about her prospects.

Second-up. First-up after nine months favourite; won by 5 len at this track May 22 over 1700m defeating Kfir with 57kg at $1.80. Previously second-up 12th of 14 at Kokura Dirt on September 2 over 1700m, 15 len behind Biografia carrying 58.0kg at $162.20. Only needs to hold that form to be winning again.
