Sonoda Race 2 - Race 2 - 1230
HINA DECOLLETE (1) sets the standard on consistency, with five placings from six starts and three placings from as many attempts at the Sonoda 1230m. She has been close at her past two, including a third beaten just over a length last start, and her edge over ANGELUS RING remains a useful reference. ANGELUS RING (2) is still a major threat, having finished fifth at Sonoda last time when beaten just under two lengths despite being among the outsiders, though she must turn around that recent head-to-head. TORIO PARTY (5) is harder to assess after being beaten out of sight last start, but her debut third gives her some minor-money appeal and she is third-up for a leading stable. BERYL BLADE (7) improved into second at big odds last start and has placed at this track and distance, yet the prior run was plain and the trip remains a query. HINA DECOLLETE is the most reliable option, with ANGELUS RING the main danger.

Placed again at Sonoda last start when third to Rock On D'Oro, beaten just over a length after being right there and sticking on. The run prior was another honest effort, finishing second to Methode when beaten two lengths after leading and conceding late. With five placings from six starts and three from three at this track and distance, she has the right profile from barrier one if she converts that consistency into a win.

Stayed within reach at Sonoda last start when fifth to Rock On D'Oro, beaten just under two lengths after working home fairly from an on-pace position. Her previous fourth over 1400m behind Tanomude Tsuyoshi came in a small field and was a softer piece of form, but the class relief and race fitness give her a genuine platform. She has to turn the tables on Hina Decollete, yet this is well within her reach.

Returns from a six-week freshening after a debut fifth over 820m at Sonoda, where she was beaten eight and a half lengths at generous odds. She settled rearward, was close enough on the turn, then failed to quicken, so there was no obvious excuse in the run. The rise to 1230m is also a query, and she needs to find a more decisive finish second-up.

Debuted with a fourth over 820m at Sonoda, but the margin told the story as he was beaten eight and a half lengths after starting big odds. He was close enough at the turn and could not go on with it, which makes the rise to 1230m a genuine test rather than an automatic plus. Improvement can come with race experience, though he must lift sharply to trouble the better exposed runners.

Backs up after six days following a fourth at Sonoda where she was never competitive and was beaten out of sight, despite making some late ground. Her debut third behind Copano Jamaica over 820m was more encouraging, beaten six lengths after travelling well to the turn. Third-up fitness and a leading stable help, but she profiles more as a place prospect than a strong winning play.

Returns from a five-week freshening after finishing last in a six-runner Sonoda debut over 1400m, beaten out of sight behind Joy D'Or. He was unwanted in the market and the in-running detail offered no strong excuse, with pressure coming late. The drop back to 1230m is another question, and even with Tomohiro Yoshimura aboard he has a sizeable gap to bridge.

Improved sharply last start when second to Nippon Seira at Sonoda, beaten five lengths after working home evenly at big odds. That was a better effort than his previous seventh behind Methode, where he conceded a huge start and was beaten over 19 lengths. He has placed once from three at this track and distance, but the trip query and uneven profile keep him in the minor-money bracket.
