Sonoda Race 6 - Race 6 - 1230
SHAN DIAN (1) settled towards the tail then wound up strongly to finish third when resuming last start over 1400m at this track. Can only be fitter and should go well again. HO O AMOUREUSE (4) finished out of the money when sixth over 1230m at this track three weeks ago. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time. CHIEF IN THE SKY (6) was disappointing last start when tenth over 1870m at this track. The engagement of Yoshiki Kamomiya is a positive move. Has the talent to find the winners' list. GOD HORNET (8) returns after a spell of six months. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 1230m at this track. Worth plenty of thought.
