Sonoda Race 7 - Race 7 - 1400
NOBLE BLANCA (2) proved too strong last start and scored by a head over 1400m at this track. Yet to miss the frame in three starts over this course and distance. Winning rider Wataru Hirose sticks. Leading contender. SMART KINGDOM (4) is an honest type who impressed last time, scoring by 3 lengths over 1230m at this track. Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. Leading contender. ADONE (8) went forward and proved too strong when resuming last time out, scoring by 2.5 lengths over 1400m at this track. Taking on a better line-up this time but he is up to the challenge. STEVE BOSS (5) was beaten 10 lengths into eighth over 1400m at this track two weeks ago. Suitably placed so can turn things around.

The race before that ran on from midfield; 2nd of 12 at this track on March 20 over 1400m, 2.5 len behind El Mirage carrying 54kg at $1.70. Another win cannot be ruled out.

Useful entire. At the latest run 8th of 10 at this track on April 16 over 1400m, 10 len behind Lady Pegasus with 57kg at $6.10. The run before that raced on the pace before fading 8th of 12 at this track on March 26 over 1400m, 7 len behind Ena Fukukitaru carrying 56kg at $69.50. Genuine chance this time around.

Second run back. First-up after six months won by 2.5 len at this track April 15 over 1400m defeating Mitologia with 57kg at $2.60. Previously second-up 2nd of 11 at this track on July 4 over 1400m, 5 len behind Don Apollon with 55kg at $4.10. Great chance to make it two in a row. Improver with winning prospects.
