Sonoda Race 4 - Race 4 - 1230

WEISSKLEE (6) showed good early speed then led into the straight last start before fighting on to finish third over 1400m at this track. Sure to go well. EXSPERION (11) comes here off a break of four months. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 1400m at this track. Strong chance to kick the campaign off on the right note. TOTONOO (7) gave the leaders a start last start and made little impact in the straight when ninth over this journey at this track. Best figures measure up and can improve here. KURINO KOTEI (3) gave away a big start at the top of the straight last start and finished fourth over 1400m at Himeji. Among the better chances in what looks a nice race.

Last start 6th of 12 at this track on March 17 over 820m, 5 len behind Nordia carrying 55kg at $8. The run before that led to the turn then faded 8th of 10 at Himeji on February 26 over 1400m, 12 len behind Spur Cross carrying 55kg at $11.10. Hard to have on recent efforts.

Form hard to fault. Last start set the pace for much of the race 3rd of 9 at this track on March 17 over 1400m, 1.1 len behind Rhein Portulaca carrying 55kg at $2.20. The run before that tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 12 at Himeji on February 18 over 800m, 2.75 len behind Miyabi Arc with 55kg at $2.50. This is well within her grasp.

Entire back from a spell of four months. Has placed previously first up from a break. Finished off last campaign second of 12 at this track December 4 over 1230m, a nose behind Smart Vivid carrying 57kg at $2. When resuming last campaign second of 10 at this track June 11 over 1400m, 0.5 len behind Rare Genius carrying 57kg at $3. This is an ideal race to kick off. Top hope.
