Sonoda Race 11 - Race 11 - 1400
MAMI EMI MOMOTARO (12) First up and tidy effort when 3rd first up last preparation at this track. Has the early speed to burn across from the wide draw. Ideal distance as proven previously. Top prospects against this opposition. INGRE (6) Solid win by 1L last run around here. Has good finishing speed. Key player. WINGS ALL (5) Came in 4th last start around here. Jockey Tomohiro Sasada and trainer Masashi Atarashi link well together. Appears well in this. HERZ AS (2) Ran 8th last time at the track but suited at this distance historically. Shows good finishing speed. Has a good draw. Up to these.

Closed only moderately when sixth in B2 grade at this track last start, beaten just under six lengths behind Marble Halo after having a few ahead turning for home. The start prior was much stronger, finishing third and beaten a neck by G T Eight. He has three placings from eight attempts around 1400m without winning, but F Komaki has a good record on him and he remains a credible place chance.

Strong track-and-distance credentials make her the one to beat. She was eighth at this track last start, but beaten just under three lengths in B2 grade and had been near the top of betting. Her prior second was a nose defeat as well-supported favourite after finishing strongly. With two wins and two placings from five starts at this track and distance, she has the right profile to bounce straight back.

Recent form is hard to recommend after finishing second last at this track, beaten over 13 lengths behind Marble Halo at long odds. He was also tenth the start prior, beaten just over six lengths after weakening in the run home. His broader 1400m record includes wins and placings, but the current figures leave him with plenty to find.

Had the run of things close enough last start but was only battling when fifth at this track, beaten over 13 lengths by Regal Time. The previous seventh was also plain, beaten six and a half lengths after failing to come into the race. Her track-and-distance record is sound, but recent performances say she has to lift sharply to threaten.

Returns from a five-week let-up after finishing fourth at this track, beaten two lengths by G T Eight, where she loomed but could not go on with it. That followed a solid second behind Smile Clark, beaten just under two lengths after closing nicely. Three wins and five places from 16 starts at this track and distance give her a strong base, and she looks a genuine winning hope.

Resumed with purpose at this track, winning a C1 by a length from Matenro Time after looming and fighting on strongly. His earlier Himeji run belongs to a previous stage of the campaign and is less relevant now he has returned a winner. Two wins and two placings from five starts at this track and distance underline the suitability, and he can go right on with it second-up.

Could not make any headway when tenth at this track last start, beaten over 11 lengths behind Marble Halo after being unwanted in the market. The run prior was worse again, finishing second last and beaten over 19 lengths. He is unplaced in all 15 starts this season, so even in familiar conditions he looks up against it.

Has been well held in two runs this campaign over 820m, finishing last behind Sun Uikyo at this track after settling rearward and making no impression. The start prior was similar, beaten nine and a half lengths after being unwanted in the market. He has placed at this track and distance, and the grade set-up is kinder, but recent form leaves him a long way off the main chances.

Produced a fourth at this track last start, though the beaten margin of over 10 lengths tempers the merit of that result. His previous Hanshin Dirt run over 1200m was also well held after conceding a huge start. One win and one placing from eight starts at the distance gives him some footing, but he profiles more as a place hope than a strong win prospect.

Finished seventh at this track last start, beaten over 15 lengths by Regal Time after having the job ahead and failing to make ground. She was also seventh the start prior, beaten five and a half lengths. Ten wins and nine places from 30 starts at this track and distance is an excellent record, but her current campaign has not matched that standard.

Returns from a five-month break after ending last campaign with a fourth at this track, beaten just under three lengths by Sunrise Guts as a short odds-on favourite. The run prior showed his quality, winning a B2 by six lengths from Epoca Rina with plenty in hand. He has five wins and three placings from 12 starts around 1400m, and that record gives him genuine claims fresh.
