Sonoda Race 11 - Race 11 - 1700

ENA ANIMAL (6) was a most impressive winner last time over 1700m at this track, scoring by 3.5 lengths. Should park just off the speed. Will give a great sight. SMART LIA FAIL (8) made progress last time out, finishing 2.75 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 1700m at this track. Must raise the bar but he has the talent to test this line-up. ARMALCOLITE (7) returned from a break last start with a less than impressive 16th over 2100m at Tokyo Dirt after travelling back in the field from the outset. Perfectly placed and is sure to give this a mighty shake. A SHIN RESUME (2) ran a better race last start to finish a close second over 1700m at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. No surprise to see him in the mix.

At the latest run 3rd of 10 at this track on March 24 over 1700m, 2.75 len behind Dante Barows carrying 57kg at $8.40. The race before that sat behind the speed prior to fading 7th of 13 at Kokura Dirt on February 21 over 1700m, 7 len behind O K Birdie with 58.0kg at $88.40. Well placed. Should prove hard to beat.
