Sonoda Race 7 - Race 7 - 820
MAKURAGA REINE (5) returned from a spell last start with a strong win by half a length over 820m at this track. Has a liking for this trip and happy to have her on top. SHIZUKANO UMI (4) went forward and gave a great sight before finishing third last time out over 820m here. In a suitable race and can figure in the finish. MEISHO KORAN (2) has been in the market at her last couple of starts but hasn't made an impression, last start finishing sixth over 800m at Himeji. Top-three chance on best figures. POD MURPHY (7) was beaten 5.5 lengths into sixth in a 1400m contest at this venue two weeks ago. Capable of featuring prominently.
