Sonoda Race 10 - Race 10 - 1400
INGRID ROSE (3) Looked good when 3rd last start here. Been in the money 2 from 2 attempts this campaign. Strong chance. IDEAL MATCH (9) Competitive effort when 2nd last run at this venue. Likely to get back in the field. One of the major players. A SHIN JIKOKUTEN (4) Nice run when 3rd last run at this venue. Expecting to settle positively. Among better hopes. BLEU VERT (1) Underperformed when 8th last start at the track but has the ideal alley. Can give this a shake.

Was safely held in C2 company last start, finishing second last at this track when beaten over 14 lengths at big odds and only fair through the line. The run prior was much better, winning a C3 here by five lengths from Hagino Merveilleux at generous odds. Weight relief and a strong track-and-distance record bring him back into place calculations, but the latest run stops him being rated higher.

Finished sixth in a C2 at this track last start, beaten just over six lengths by Cresco Taishi after lacking a change of gears late. He had been more competitive two runs back when third as a well-supported favourite behind Kairashi, working home evenly. Still winless from six starts and only placed once at around 1400m, so he profiles as a minor-money chance if he finds a sharper finish.

Comes through two solid runs this campaign, winning a C3 at this venue by four lengths as a dominant odds-on favourite before finishing third in C2 company, beaten four and a half lengths by Jun Odr. Her record at this track and distance is a clear strength, and she has also built a good association with Sota Hijikata. Third-up and in form, she looks a strong winning chance again.

Produced a much better effort last start when third in a C2 at this track over 1230m, beaten a length and a half by Venice Queen at generous odds. That was a clear response after being second last and beaten over 12 lengths by T O Townes the run prior. With one win and seven placings from 15 starts, plus a sound record with Nambu Fuma, he has the profile to run boldly.

Has been well beaten at both recent appearances, finishing last at this track in C2 grade last start when beaten over 16 lengths by No Ten P Kan after offering little late. She was ninth two runs back over 820m, beaten over 12 lengths at big odds. A previous win at this venue is some background, but current form leaves her with a sizeable task.

Recent form has tapered away, with a second-last finish over 820m last start when beaten just over eight lengths by Bellagio Abroad at big odds. She was also last in a C2 at this track the run prior, beaten over 11 lengths after racing near the speed. Her place record is respectable for a maiden, but she must produce far more to trouble the main hopes.

Finished ninth in a C2 at this track last start, beaten six and a half lengths by Maestro Light at generous odds. His previous run was weaker again, with a seventh behind Wonder Bless after settling prominently and coming under pressure late. The overall record is still thin, including no placings from four goes around 1400m, but race fitness keeps him in the fringe place mix.

Made some late ground from a long way back when fifth in C2 company last start, but was still beaten over 12 lengths by Win Solennel at long odds. The start prior was even harder to recommend, finishing sixth and well beaten by 22 lengths behind Aloha Mau Loa. She has plenty of track-and-distance experience, but current ratings leave her needing a marked lift.

Closed off strongly for second in C2 company at this track last start, beaten two lengths by Lambeau Leap after having the job ahead. That followed a C3 win over 1230m here, where he started odds-on and finished over the top of A Shin Gluck. Proven at this track and distance, with Wataru Hirose retaining the ride, he brings the best recent form and looks the horse to beat.

Failed to fire in the same C2 won by Lambeau Leap last start, finishing last and beaten over 13 lengths after not running on. He was also safely held two runs back, eighth behind Kairashi and unwanted in the market. A past win at this track and distance, plus a positive jockey record, give him a small case, but he looks reliant on sharp improvement.
