Sonoda Race 5 - Race 5 - 1400
ALAN (5) wasted no time getting off the mark on debut over 1400m at this track four weeks ago. Promising type who can go back-to-back. FULL LIMIT (11) did little in fifth over 1400m at this track last start, a less impressive effort than his fourth at Himeji the run before. Likely improver with strong prospects. PAJARO AZUL (2) debuted four weeks ago when he finished fourth over 1400m at this track. Improver who can feature in the finish. SUN AND THE MOON (7) was never in contention last time over 1400m at this track when he finished eighth. Finds the right race and is worth consideration.
