Sonoda Race 5 - Race 5 - 1400

SAKURA TOP ROL (10) Unimpressive effort when 7th last time around here. Happy to forgive that run. Should be swooping on the field late. Daichi Matsuki rates highly aboard. No surprise to see a forward showing and one of the main hopes in this race. ISE BAY (4) Disappointing run when 8th last run at this venue but returning to a rise in trip. Gets a chance to win. TAMBAFFE (1) Came in 6th last time at this track but back to an increased distance. Gets a favourable draw. Has to be strongly considered. A SHIN CINERARIA (6) Fresh from a spell. Mediocre performance when 12th last run at this venue. Should come to hand quickly. Good each way value for punters.

Worked home only fairly when sixth over 820m at this track last start, beaten four lengths after settling midfield at big odds. The start prior was more concerning, as she was second last and beaten over 10 lengths after finding little when in a position to strike. Her record around 1400m is far more persuasive, with five wins and seven placings, so she can improve into the minor-money mix.

Finished second last at this track last start, beaten over 13 lengths by Cassis Orange and unwanted in the market. That followed an eighth, beaten just over eight lengths, when he had runners ahead turning in and failed to come into the race. With no placings from 22 starts in the past 12 months, he will have to produce a sharp form turnaround.

Settled rearward over 820m at this track last start and made no impression, finishing ninth and beaten nine lengths at long odds. His previous seventh was no stronger, beaten over 10 lengths by Aratama Oso. He has one win from 28 starts around 1400m and is unplaced from nine at this track and distance, leaving him with a steep task.

Recent 820m efforts have been below his better level, including an eighth at this track last start when he settled rearward and never worked into it, beaten just over eight lengths. The important counterpoint is his excellent 1400m record here: five wins and seven places from 13 attempts at this track and distance. With weight relief, he can be a genuine place player.

Showed enough when fifth over 820m at this track last start, rolling forward and sticking on better than the beaten margin of just under five lengths might suggest. She is proven at the return to 1400m, with two wins and five places from 28 starts at this track and distance, and S Kawahara has won three times on her. That combination gives her the strongest winning platform.

Returns from a lengthy four-month spell after ending last campaign with a last placing, well beaten by 21 lengths at this track when she faded late. The run prior is the key reference, as she was second to Billowy Dada and beaten only a neck at generous odds. With one win and four places from 22 starts at this track and distance, she has the right form to threaten fresh.

Finished last at this track last start, beaten over 14 lengths by Cassis Orange after being unwanted in the market. Two back was worse, as he finished a distant last behind Temps Tendre after settling rearward and giving further ground in the straight. The winning rider returns, but recent form leaves him well short of the main chances.

Was beaten out of sight at this track last start, finishing last of 10 behind Cannonball after having too much ground to make up. That followed a second-last placing, beaten a long way by La La Ancestral, where he gave very little in the run home. A prior track win is not enough to offset those figures, and he must find far more.

Latest run was a clear negative, finishing second last at this track and beaten out of sight by Cannonball at long odds. He had been a little more competitive the start prior when fifth behind Aratama Oso, though still beaten eight and a half lengths. His track-and-distance win keeps him from being dismissed for exotics, but the recent form makes him a risky win option.

Disappointed badly when seventh at this track last start, beaten over 16 lengths by Tenku World after sitting just off the speed as a well-backed runner. His previous second to Tatta Tara Rira, beaten two lengths, is much better form for this. With three wins and ten places from 40 starts at this track and distance, he is well placed to bounce back strongly.

Was in touch but offered little when seventh at this track last start, beaten over 18 lengths by Kakuhen at long odds. The start prior was also only fair, finishing sixth and beaten over 12 lengths by Galant. He has placed twelve times from 41 starts at this track and distance without winning, so his profile points more to a placing than a breakthrough.

Settled a long way back and failed to improve when eighth at this track last start, beaten over 17 lengths by Erika Bruges at long odds. His previous seventh was similar, beaten over 16 lengths after being unable to make any headway. With one win from 109 starts overall and only two placings from 33 at this track and distance, others appeal far more.
