Sonoda Race 2 - Race 2 - 1400
MEISHO ROLLS (7) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third over 1400m at this track after being prominent at the corner. Finds a suitable race and can build on that solid recent effort. SUNRISE GREAT (4) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 6 lengths when seventh over 1400m at Himeji seven weeks ago. Finds a nice race and can play a significant role. CRESCO WAY (8) was last at the races when he finished eighth over 1230m at this track on November 27. Among the better hopes. MEISHO KUMOJI (1) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a eighth over 1400m at this track after he got a long way back in the run. Can turn things around.
