Sonoda Race 10 - Race 10 - 1870
ARABIAN D'ORO (5) was a determined maiden winner last time out, scoring by a neck over 1400m at this track. Sparingly raced and has more to offer. Shaping up nicely and he can go on with it. SARASA CHARMING (11) resumes from a spell of three months. Could only manage to finish tenth at the latest run over 1600m at Kyoto. Hard to beat if back in good order as anticipated. SATONO BIDAAYA (4) has been out of the frame at his last couple of runs, last time finishing 8 lengths back in eighth over 1800m at Hanshin. Finds an easier assignment and is among the leading chances. BELLMA (8) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1400m at this track, beaten 2.5 lengths. Looks to be in the right race so expect another big run.
