Sonoda Race 8 - Race 8 - 1400

BELLAGIO DREAM (3) showed good early speed from the inside draw last time and led throughout to score by 7 lengths over 1400m at this track. Strong performer at the second run back from a spell with a win and two minor placings from three runs. Form at this track is solid. Expected to be in the finish. YODONO TAIYO (4) turned in a sound effort last time but found one better at this track over 1400m, beaten 0.8 lengths. Has never been out of the money in four starts here, including a win. Will prove tough to beat. DON ACHEKA (6) has not appeared since he finished third over 1500m at Himeji on February 17. Comes here with definite top-three claims. KIICHI AUTUMN (1) comes here off a break of 11 weeks. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 1700m at this track. One to consider.

Second-up. First-up after four months favourite; scored a big 7 len win at this track May 27 over 1400m defeating Flash Kelly with 58kg at $1.30. Previously second-up favourite; scored a big 4 len win at this track October 10 over 1400m defeating Mantegna carrying 57kg at $1.10. Looks a big chance to add to the impressive recent run. Improver with winning prospects.
