Sonoda Race 11 - Race 11 - 1400

SMART SCEPTER (8) was a dominant winner last time over 1230m at this track, getting home by 2.5 lengths. Has a high cruising speed. Will play a major role. VATRENI (5) showed little early speed last start and failed to come on in the straight when tenth, beaten 10 lengths, over 1700m at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects. DON ACHEKA (3) has not won for a long while. Last raced on December 24 when beaten 4 lengths into fifth at this track over 1700m after being in contention on the corner. Taking on a better line-up this time but he has the ability to mix it with them. PACE SETTING (10) is back after a break of 12 weeks. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 1400m at this track. Among the better hopes.
