Sonoda Race 7 - Race 7 - 1230

WAKINO NOBLE (7) sets the standard after successive Sonoda wins, most recently beating Last Duel by a length and a half over this trip after settling back. She is drawn wider than ideal, but the current form is the cleanest in the race and her 1230m record reads well. CROWD NOISE (1) resumes from a four-month break and has a far stronger Sonoda 1230m profile than his latest ninth suggests, though he must rebound from two plain efforts. OAKEN (3) improved sharply last week when fourth to Ankoro after leading, and he maps to be prominent again. ENTELECHEIA (5) has been below his best but can use early speed and the rise from 1000m is a point in his favour. DRAGON GOKU (6) needs to lift on recent margins, yet the return to a winning distance and Wataru Hirose back aboard keep him in the place mix.

Returns from a four-month break after leading and fading to ninth in a 4yo+ A1A2 here, beaten just over five lengths by Narita Shin at generous odds. His previous fifth to Lux Meteor was also only fair, but the drop in class, 53kg and outstanding record of five wins and two places from nine starts at the Sonoda 1230m give him a genuine platform to rebound.

Settled handy but failed to quicken when ninth here in a 3yo+ COND, beaten six and a half lengths by Silence Time after being unwanted in the market. He had been second last over the same course two back, beaten over 14 lengths at big odds. The track-and-trip record is sound, but current form leaves him with plenty to find.

Showed a much sharper effort on the one-week back-up when fourth here in a 3yo+ A2B1, leading and sticking on to be beaten a length and a half by Ankoro. That was a clear turnaround from his tenth to Sail On Sailor two back, when beaten over 13 lengths at long odds. The distance query remains, but his map position and established rider record bring him right into calculations.

Recent form has lacked the necessary finish, with an eighth here in a 3yo+ COND after sitting handy and weakening, beaten six and a half lengths by Silence Time at long odds. He was also safely held when seventh to Genius Lennon the start prior. His overall record is strong, but this season has not produced the same level and improvement is required.

Returns from a five-week freshening after finishing sixth over 1000m at Funabashi, where he was close enough on the turn but was still beaten four lengths by Menkoi Bokuchan. He had been a disappointing sixth at Kawasaki over 900m when near the top of betting. The rise to 1230m and class relief help, but he profiles more as a placing hope than a strong win play.

Drops back from two 1400m runs where he finished sixth both times, most recently beaten eight and a half lengths by Ecoro Bolt after settling rearward and making no impression. The run prior to Virya was better late but still left him six and a half lengths away. Returning to a winning distance and reuniting with Wataru Hirose are positives, though he needs the tempo to suit.

Chasing a hat-trick after winning a 3yo+ B1B2 here by a length and a half from Last Duel, having settled rearward and produced the right finish while near the top of betting. She had also beaten High Love Song by a head at big odds the run prior, showing the form was no one-off. With two wins from three at both the track and distance, she looks the runner with the clearest winning case.
