Sonoda Race 10 - Race 10 - 1230
ZENDANNO HAGEMI (5) returns from a break of four months. Consistent performer last prep whose most recent appearance resulted in a second over 1230m at this track. Expected to bring the good form from last campaign to this contest. SOUND TUTU (1) finished 2.75 lengths from the winner in fourth last start after being in the firing line on the bend over 1230m at this track, an improvement on her tenth at this track the run before. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. ELPIZO (3) has progressed nicely in her last couple of runs. Finished second at this track two starts back then scored by 3 lengths as public elect last time out over 1230m at this track. She can win again. RIKEA SABLE (6) returned from a spell three weeks ago when he was seventh over 1230m at this track. Fitter so anticipating a better run this time.
