Sonoda Race 1 - Race 1 - 1400

EXPLORE BEST (12) finished fifth two runs back at this track then improved last time out to score by 2 lengths after being in the firing line on the corner over 1400m at this track. Going up a level this time but she deserves plenty of thought. MAESTRO LIGHT (10) recorded a gutsy maiden victory last time out over 1400m at this track, scoring by 0.8 lengths. Looks well placed and he is right in the mix again. MOON SET (3) turned in a fine effort to win by 1.3 lengths at today's course and distance last start in a much improved run. Meets some better types this time but another big run will not surprise. ANNINA (7) turned in a fine effort to win by 7 lengths at this course and distance last start in a much improved run. Meeting a deeper field this time but she can win again.

Form hard to fault. Most recently won by 0.8 len at this track April 1 over 1400m defeating Oreno Sugowaza with 57kg at $5.90. The run before that 4th of 10 at Himeji on March 11 over 1400m, 8 len behind Miracle Ace with 57kg at $6.40. Best form should see him measure right up.
