Sonoda Race 2 - Race 2 - 1400
MARUKA HART (4) Ran 6th last time here. Should bounce back. Massive hope. UMESUISHO (5) Backs up quickly. Ran 7th last time at this venue. Should improve here. Worth an each way bet in this. AURORA BOLT (6) Had difficulty when 4th last start at this track but was a debutant last start. Going over extra ground. Serious player. MASORA (1) Ran 8th last time at the track but will appreciate a good draw. Returns to a longer distance. Place chance.

Finished eighth over 820m at this track last start, beaten nine and a half lengths after settling midfield and offering no market confidence. The start prior was far worse, when second last and beaten out of sight after dropping out sharply. Four unplaced runs around 1400m add to the task, so he has to produce a clear form reversal to trouble these.

Gets weight relief and comes through a fifth at this track, but she was beaten over 10 lengths after failing to quicken when asked. Her prior run was a distant tenth after giving away too much ground, and she was also beaten by Umesuisho at this venue about a month ago. The light weight helps, though she profiles more as a rough minor hope than a winning play.

Has been tailed off at his past two runs, most recently second last at this track when unwanted in the market and beaten a long way by Belle Deesse. He was last over 1230m the run before after settling miles back and failing to improve. Fourth-up fitness is a small plus, but the form line leaves him with plenty to find.

Reaches his fourth run this campaign after finishing sixth at this track, beaten over 13 lengths by Belle Deesse when the final effort was only moderate. The start prior was also plain, though his recent head-to-head with Umesuisho is mixed after beating her once and losing to her once. With three unplaced tries around 1400m, he shapes as a place hope rather than a strong win chance.

Rates strongly against this field despite a plain seventh over 1230m last week, when she was beaten nine and a half lengths at big odds behind Hina Decollete. Two back she was never competitive and beaten out of sight, so the recent margins are not flattering. The return to 1400m carries a query, but her profile still leaves her as one of the main winning chances.

Worked home from well back on debut over 820m at this track, finishing fourth in a small field but still tailed off behind Another Love. That margin keeps the assessment measured, and he now tackles 1400m for the first time. Natural second-up improvement can bring him closer, though the new trip makes him more a placing prospect at this stage.

Returns from a five-week freshening after a debut fourth at this track, where he was near the top of an open market and kept working to the line behind Mami Yuga. The beaten margin was over 14 lengths, but that first race experience should be valuable and he already has a run at this distance. With natural improvement second-up, he sets the standard in a race thin on convincing form.

Settled rearward and made no impression when sixth at this track last start, beaten over 13 lengths by Gamila's Buin after being unwanted in the market. The run before was a last placing, with a huge start conceded and no impact at any stage. Unplaced in five runs at this venue, he will have to lift sharply to get involved.
