Sonoda Race 3 - Race 3 - 1400
NICE SHOOT (5) won on debut then met with solid support last start over 1400m at this track when third. Should be there at the finish again. DALI (6) did well last start but found one better over 1400m at this track, beaten only half a length. Nicely placed to take this out. J L MARINA (7) showed good early speed and raced on the pace last start before fading to finish fourth over 1400m at this track. Will push forward and is among the chances. LANCE OF VENUS (8) was prominent at the turn and finished third last time over 1230m at this track when resuming from a spell. Fitter second-up and is worth serious consideration.

Had two starts to date. When well in the market at debut, favourite; won by 1.0 len at this track June 12 over 1400m defeating Miko Castana with 56kg at $1.30. Last start ran on from midfield; 3rd of 11 at this track on July 4 over 1400m, 5.5 len behind Smile Torrent carrying 57kg at $1.20. Key chance likely to give a big sight.

Form hard to fault. Last start raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 10 at this track on July 3 over 1400m, 3 len behind Snark Stage carrying 55kg at $3. The race before that rolled along in front before being edged out 3rd of 12 at this track on May 22 over 1400m, 2.5 len behind Success Canon with 51kg at $27.10. Capable of a strong showing.
