Sonoda Race 5 - Race 5 - 820
POMME (1) broke through for her maiden win over 820m at this track last time, scoring comfortably. Nicely drawn on the fence and she is a key runner. EPIC DAY (4) has progressed nicely in her last couple of runs. Finished second here two starts back then got the job done by 1.3 lengths as favourite last time out over 820m at this track. Takashi Nakata scored on her last time and retains the mount. Taking on a better line-up this time but she deserves plenty of thought. TREASURE BLUE (8) did a great job to score by half a length over today's course and distance last start to maintain his good form of late. Meets some better types this time but another win beckons. MEISHO MASATSURA (7) was prominent until they straightened last time but weakened to finish seventh over 1400m at this track. Expect him to finish closer here.

Returns from a 29-day let-up. At the latest run 3rd of 12 at this track on November 11 over 820m, 3.5 len behind Coccolare carrying 55kg at $53.90. The race before that made some head-way from midfield; 3rd of 12 at this track on October 23 over 820m, 1.5 len behind Aoyu Star carrying 55kg at $28. Unlikely to finish in the winner's circle.

Most recently struggled in the run home; 7th of 10 at this track on November 13 over 1400m, 14 len behind Beam with 57kg at $11.70. The race before that did the work up front then tired 7th of 12 at this track on October 17 over 1230m, 7 len behind Galant with 57kg at $2.50. Can make amends for a modest effort last time.

Most recently raced on the pace before fading 7th of 12 at this track on November 12 over 1230m, 11 len behind T O Varnay with 55kg at $48.10. The start before that raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 5th of 10 at this track on September 11 over 1400m, 5 len behind Satono Harmonia with 54kg at $2.90. Might just find this lot a bit smart.
