Sonoda Race 2 - Race 2 - 1400
SAKURA TOP SELLER (1) progressed nicely last time out to finish just 1.75 lengths from the winner in second over this track and trip after being in contention on the bend. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. MOON BRIDGE (10) finished fourth last start here, an improvement on his sixth at this track the run before. Tomohiro Yoshimura gets the best out of this four-year-old entire. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. NAMURA ANNIKA (3) is yet to break through but not far off a win. Placed two back then missed the frame but was thereabouts last time here. Will drift back but wind up late. Well placed here and among the winning hopes. SAKURA MY WAY (5) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start. Strips fitter and should be thereabouts.
