Sonoda Race 6 - Race 6 - 1700
VIP GEMMA (7) met with solid support when resuming last start over 1400m at this track when third, beaten 6 lengths. Can bounce back. RED ACTEUR (5) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third over 1400m at this course. Well placed and there is no reason why he cannot find winning ways. ORENO SUGOWAZA (1) failed to live up to market expectations last start when out of the placings over 1400m here. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time. MAESTRO LIGHT (6) was beaten 7 lengths into eighth in a 1400m contest at this circuit two-and-a-half weeks ago. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.

Strong effort last time and looks a leading hope.
