Sonoda Race 10 - Race 10 - 1400
MIKO CASTANA (4) Made no mistakes when winning by 6L last time at this track. Should race on the speed. Stable is in form. Every chance today. WISPY SNOW (7) Was first to greet the judge when winning by 1 1/2L last time at the track and demonstrating upward trajectory in recent races. No surprise to see a forward showing and one of the main hopes in this race. ALLONSY CAFE (3) Put a gap on the rest when winning by 3L last run here. Gets back and needs luck. Capable of better. O SHIN ANGEL (11) Ran 2nd last run around here. Has a nice turn of foot. Exotics and place contender.

Returns from a one-month freshening after a plain seventh at Kochi in C3 grade, beaten over 12 lengths by Extra Note after offering little late. The start prior was also well held, though she was nearer the top of betting before finishing fifth behind Liberty Flame. Still a maiden after 19 starts, but six career placings and five placings around 1400m keep her in minor-money calculations.

Finished last at this track in C2 grade last start, beaten a long way by Aloha Mau Loa after settling miles back and making no impression at long odds. His narrow C3 win over Annabelle Diamant the run prior shows he can finish off when things suit, and he has three track-and-distance wins, but the latest run leaves him with plenty to turn around.

Came from a difficult position to win a C3 at this track by three lengths last start, beating Pasadena Dream after being kept safe near the top of betting. She had earlier finished fourth behind Kurino Achiever, beaten three lengths, and has one win plus two placings from ten at this track and distance. The rise into C2 is the test, but her current form reads well enough for a genuine placing chance.

Dominated a C3 at this track last start, winning by six lengths from Sakura Top Seller after travelling in striking range and putting the race away quickly. Her first-up sixth behind Aloha Mau Loa was plain, and she did lose to O Shin Angel about a month ago, but the third-up profile, four wins from 18 around 1400m and excellent track-and-distance record give her the strongest winning case.

Lifted sharply last start to win a C3 at this track by a neck from Joy Black, making up plenty of ground late at generous odds. That was a clear improvement on his eighth over 820m, where he was beaten over 12 lengths by Spyware after coming under pressure late. The move back to 1400m suits on his limited distance record, though this C2 assignment asks for another step.

Has been beaten a long way in two recent C2 runs at this track, finishing ninth behind Sunrise Roy last start after settling just off the lead. The previous ninth behind Smart Ideal was also weak late, so the recent evidence is difficult to support. The weight relief is a small positive, but she will have to produce a much stronger finish to threaten.

Confirmed market confidence when winning a C3 at this track by a length and a half last start, beating Satono Grand as a short odds-on favourite. That followed a third behind Cresco Taishi where she worked home evenly, and her three wins plus eight placings from 26 at this track and distance give her a reliable platform. The latest win was controlled enough to make her a major player again.

Was beaten out of sight in C2 company at this track last start, finishing sixth behind Lac Puer at big odds and only fair through the line. The start prior was no better over 1700m, when she finished a distant last behind Meisho Jinso after never getting into the contest. She has won at this trip before, but current form leaves others with stronger claims.

Back after five weeks following a fourth at Nagoya in C7 grade, where she was beaten eight and a half lengths by Treasure Beat and only fair to the line. Her previous third behind Haru Note in C9 company was better, beaten just over half a length after tracking the speed. This is her first look at this venue, and she will have to bring her best Nagoya placing form to be competitive.

Knuckled down to win a C3 at this track by a nose last start, beating Helter Skelter at long odds. She had also been sound enough when fourth behind Wonder Wac two back, beaten six and a half lengths from a rearward position. Four wins at this track and distance are useful, but rising from that narrow C3 win into this C2 line-up leaves her with more to prove.

Has gone close in consecutive C3 runs at this track, most recently second to Galant when beaten just under a length after starting near the top of an open market. He was the same margin away behind Meisho Rise two back despite being unwanted in betting, and his 1400m record is deep. Barrier 11 asks for the right run, but his consistency keeps him right in the winning mix.
