Sonoda Race 3 - Race 3 - 1400
SAKURA VIGUEUR (5) was out of the money first-up but has since placed two on end and looks close to a win, the latest effort a third over 1400m at this track. Right in this. RUMILLION (1) was always well back over this course and distance last time and never threatened in the straight when tenth. Anticipating a better run this time. PADME (6) failed to feature last start, finishing fifth over 1400m at this track. Expected to feature if at her best. ROSA BANKSIAE (9) ran below expectations last start, finishing seventh here over 1230m. In the mix.

Recent form sound. Last start ran on from midfield; 2nd of 10 at this track on November 18 over 1400m, 4 len behind Meisho Kotodama with 55kg at $13.30.

Racing well recently. Last start held ground to the line 3rd of 10 at this track on November 20 over 1400m, 3 len behind Aphesis carrying 57kg at $4.80. Before that 2nd in a small field at this track on November 4 over 1700m, head behind Smart Canon carrying 57kg at $1.70. Best form should see him measure right up.
