Sonoda Race 1 - Race 1 - 1400
MARBLE TISWA (4) Bold effort to win by 1 1/2L last start at the track and have to respect the form at the distance. Very competitive this preparation and solid career start. Appears well in this. JUN ODR (3) Finished 8th last start here. Should improve from the last run but will be facing a significant drop in distance. Exhibiting good form since coming back from a break. Worth a ticket. A SHIN WICKED (6) Unimpressive effort when 6th last time here. Jockey Tomohiro Yoshimura rates highly. Possesses the talent and has some chance. INGRID ROSE (2) Found another gear when winning by a margin of 4L last run here and has a good draw. Showing improvement in recent outings. Can feature.

Has been beaten in two recent sixths at this track, but her broader profile keeps her firmly in play. She led before being overrun when beaten eight and a half lengths by Even Par last start, after lacking a change of gears behind Teikei Holomua the run prior. The class drop, 52kg impost and two wins from seven at this track and distance give her a strong platform to rebound as the one to beat.

Returned in excellent order at this venue, beating Dream Chaser by four lengths in a 3yo+ C3 after travelling into it smoothly and putting the race away quickly. She had been only fair when fourth as an odds-on favourite before that, but her track-and-distance record is sound and Sota Hijikata has won twice on her. Second-up now, she has the form substance to go close again.

Was well beaten over 1700m at this track last start after giving away a big start and never getting involved, which was a sharp drop from his ten-length 3yo+ C3 win the run prior. He is well established around 1400m and has a solid place record at this track and distance, but that latest failure leaves him with plenty to repair.

Continued a consistent early career when she beat Narita Sereno by a length and a half here last start, justifying market support and quickening well when asked. The start prior she was only fair as favourite when fourth behind Gaspard, but two wins and two placings from five starts is a reliable base. Looks a genuine place hope with some winning upside.

Has struggled to make an impact in two recent runs, finishing ninth at Nagoya when beaten over 13 lengths after starting big odds, following a last placing over 900m at Kawasaki. She has one win and one placing around 1400m, but is unplaced in all nine starts this season and has her first look at this venue. Others bring much stronger recent form.

Was soundly beaten at this track last start, finishing sixth and beaten over 10 lengths after being in touch before fading out. His debut win prior was more encouraging, beating Italic Type by two lengths as a dominant odds-on favourite, and Tomohiro Yoshimura is back aboard. Third-up improvement is possible, but he shapes more as an each-way hope than a prime winning chance.

Recent form is modest, with a second-last to Even Par at this track last start after settling well back, following a tenth behind Rebecca Rainbow. He was big odds last time and his record at this track and distance is poor, yet the class drop offers some assistance. A lift is required, but he can be considered for minor money in a thin lower tier.

Sprang an upset at this venue last start, holding on to beat Waroteru by a neck over 1230m at long odds. That was a major turnaround from being beaten out of sight and unwanted in the market in a 3yo+ C2 the run prior. He has placed at this track and distance and combines well with Toyokazu Tano, but he has to prove that latest win was no one-off.
