Sonoda Race 6 - Race 6 - 1400
MEISHO KOROGI (2) went forward when resuming last start over 1400m at Himeji and held on well for third. Drawn to take a nice trail just off the speed and anticipating another big run. NORI WOOD TAIL (5) improved last start but found one better over 1500m at Himeji, beaten only a neck. Osamu Shimohara gets the best out of this four-year-old filly. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. CHARIS PEARL (6) is racing well without being able to break through, the latest effort a second over 1400m at Himeji three weeks ago. Genuine performer so she is expected to be in the finish. HAPPY MONSTER (10) lines up for the first time since October 2. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 1400m at this track. Comes here with definite top-three claims.
