Sonoda Race 4 - Race 4 - 1400
YUBAE (7) turned in a decent effort last start to finish second over 1400m at this track after being in the firing line on the corner. Has her share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. URBAN KING (3) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 5 lengths when fourth over 1400m at this track three-and-a-half weeks ago after being in contention on the corner. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. SMART QUEEN (9) improved last start to finish second over 1400m at this track after being in contention on the turn. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. ECONOMICA (4) turned in another moderate effort last start when 20 lengths from the winner in ninth over 1400m at this track. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.
