Sonoda Race 4 - Race 4 - 1400
DONALD POKER (7) went down narrowly last start when well in the market, finishing second at this track over 1400m, beaten only 0.8 lengths. Right in the mix again. PLEASANT HARBOR (8) could only manage to finish seventh last time out over 1400m here following a minor placing at this track the run prior. Likely to be about the money. HEROES (1) did little and finished ninth over 1400m at this track last start. Finds a nice race and can feature in the finish. KAIRI (2) finished third last time over 1400m at this track. Will trim down following recent racing and is nicely placed to fill a top-three spot again.

Recent form sound. Comes here off a 30-day let-up. Most recently made some head-way from midfield; 2nd of 11 at this track on November 18 over 1400m, 0.8 len behind Cherry Brian carrying 55kg at $1.60. The race before that sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 7 at Monbetsu on October 22 over 1100m, 4 len behind Dairin Pharaoh with 56kg at $4.60. Strong winning hope.
