Sonoda Race 11 - Race 11 - 820

GIFT BASKET (1) is the horse to beat after putting a margin on AOI ALZARD in 3yo+ C1 company at this track, winning by three and a half lengths as favourite. The two-month freshening is noted, but her record at 820m and proven track-and-trip form give her a strong platform. INTO THE FLOW (5) looks the main danger after being beaten a neck by Sun Uikyo at this venue, where she gave a sight and had BELLADONNA LILY behind her. Her six wins and four placings from 13 starts at this track and distance read very well. BELLADONNA LILY (2) was below her best when fifth as favourite, but her previous third behind SPINNAKER and strong 820m record keep her right in the winning mix. ONE VOICE (4) resumes from six months off and is untried at around 820m, yet his placing record across the past year gives him genuine minor-money appeal if sharp enough fresh.

Comments

Returns from a two-month freshening after a dominant 3yo+ C1 win at this track, scoring by three and a half lengths as favourite after settling prominently. She had been fourth to Fiorino the run prior when well-supported, so the latest result confirmed her form rather than coming from nowhere. Proven at this track and distance and in the right vein, she sets the standard for the race.

Had every chance when fifth to Sun Uikyo at this track last start, beaten three and a half lengths after sitting just off the speed as favourite. Her previous third behind Spinnaker was sound, and the broader record is hard to overlook, with three wins and eight placings from 15 starts at this track and distance. With Tomohiro Yoshimura back aboard, she remains a strong chance to rebound.

Comes off two very poor Ohi runs over 1600m, finishing a distant last behind Agile Black before being never competitive and beaten out of sight by Yuyu Starry. He was huge odds on both occasions and has been unplaced in all 14 starts this season. The class drop is the only positive, but his recent figures leave him with a major task.

Resumes from a six-month spell after ending his last campaign with a fifth at this track behind Vuela Fuerte, beaten just over six lengths when unwanted in the market. His previous second to Grand Rutile showed he can still run a race at odds, and he placed seven times from 16 starts in the past 12 months. The 820m is new, so he profiles as a place hope if sharp enough fresh.

Went very close at this track last start, finishing third to Sun Uikyo and beaten a neck after giving a sight as a well-supported favourite. That was a sharp return to her best after fading over 1230m behind Wakino Noble the run prior. Her 820m record is outstanding, with six wins and four placings from 13 starts at this track and distance, making her a key winning threat.

Was well beaten at this track last start over 1230m, finishing second last to Z Karen by over 16 lengths at long odds with no obvious excuse. Her start prior was better when second to Gift Basket at this venue, although still beaten three and a half lengths. Back to a proven 820m setup with a light weight, she can improve enough to chase a minor prize.

Has been beaten over 18 lengths and over 19 lengths in two recent runs at this track over 1400m, failing to offer a serious threat either time. His overall career record is much stronger than his current form suggests, but he is unplaced in two starts at this venue and has not raced at around 820m before. He will have to lift sharply to trouble these.

Returns from a six-week freshening after leading into the lane at this track and tiring badly when second last behind Spinnaker, beaten just under ten lengths. She had offered little the run prior behind Jhang Maghiana in 3yo+ B2 grade, so the recent pattern is a concern. A returning winning rider helps, but she has no win from nine track-and-distance starts.

Returns from a six-week freshening after battling fairly for seventh behind Spinnaker at this track, beaten six and a half lengths when unwanted in the market. His previous win in 3yo+ B2 grade was much stronger, beating Agnes Ryu by three lengths at generous odds. With a good record for Yamamotoya Taizo, he has claims for the placings if he finds that earlier form.

Was well beaten by 22 lengths when last behind Z Karen over 1230m at this track last start, and there was no clear excuse in the run. The start prior was far better, winning over this course and distance by just over a length from Maido Okini after finishing strongly. That win keeps him in the wider mix, but he must put a plain last run behind him.

Comments

Finished seventh behind Sun Uikyo at this track last start, beaten just over seven lengths after having a suitable position but offering little late. Two back he was ninth behind Spinnaker, again safely held at big odds. His long-term 820m record is strong, but he is unplaced in five starts this season and others bring sharper recent form.

Led briefly before tiring out of contention at this track last start, finishing eighth behind Z Karen and beaten over 12 lengths. His previous sixth behind Ankoro was also safely held despite coming out of a stronger 3yo+ A2B1 race. He does have four wins and seven placings from 20 starts at this track and distance, but current form is the sticking point.
