Sonoda Race 7 - Race 7 - 1400
DAME SUNRISE (4) displayed plenty of early toe over 1400m at this track last time and dug deep to score by 5 lengths. Will again be prominent from the outset. Nicely placed to take this out. NORI WOOD TAIL (6) is poised to win after placing at her last four outings, most recently when second over 1400m at this track when she was prominent throughout. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot find winning ways. EARTH GRAZER (8) showed good early speed from the inside draw when fresh from a spell last time out, leading for home before finding one better over 1400m at this track. One of the main contenders. KIKUNO CRUIJFF (3) missed the placings two runs back then did well last start but found a couple better over 1400m at this track, beaten only 1.3 lengths. Nicely placed to find winning ways.

Most recently eased back early on 5th of 9 at this track on May 7 over 1400m, 10 len behind Satono Kairos with 55kg at $78.70. The run before that failed to make an impression; 8th of 10 at this track on April 8 over 1400m, 17 len behind Hagino Inspire with 55kg at $26.30. Can't see her troubling these.
