Sonoda Race 7 - Race 7 - 1400

MAGO ICHITA (4) is a 15-start maiden who resumed from a spell last start and finished sixth over 1400m at Himeji. Fitter for that outing and is a great chance to break his maiden status. MEISHO SHOOT (9) showed good early speed then led into the straight last start before fighting on to finish second, beaten 1.5 lengths, over 1400m at Himeji. Solid run last time and could take catching again. WONDER CUIRASSE (1) kept coming but just failed to pick up the winner last start over 1400m at this track. Placed to advantage so expect another big run. KURINO AWESOME (2) will strip fitter for this after running below expectations first-up at this track, finishing sixth over 1400m. Anticipating a better run this time.

Comments

Form hard to fault. Most recently led but faded 2nd of 10 at Himeji on March 11 over 1400m, 1.5 len behind Hagino Aggressive carrying 57kg at $2.10. The start before that 4th of 10 at Himeji on February 11 over 1400m, 3 len behind Evgenes with 57kg at $4.40. Nice effort last time. Can go on with the job now.
