Sonoda Race 9 - Race 9 - 1400
ITOSHINO FURSA (6) Dominant winner by 8L last time at this venue and on an upward trajectory in recent races. Putting up notable efforts since returning from a break. Will be around the mark at odds. HINA DECOLLETE (3) Won by 1 3/4L last start at the track. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. Exhibiting good form since returning from a spell. Definite claims. PERIDOT (9) Not up to scratch when 6th last start around here. Toyokazu Tano and Ryouhei Hori make a formidable team. Deserves consideration. AKANENO SORA (11) Fought on well to win a tight contest by 1/2L last run here and solid career start. Going well this preparation and stepping back up in trip. This field suits.

Finished fifth at this track last start, beaten eight lengths after sitting handy and failing to finish off. The start prior was similar, safely held in sixth behind Bhadra when an outside chance in the betting. Her career record is sound enough, with one win and three places from six starts, but she has not won in four tries at this track and distance. Others bring sharper recent form.

Returns from a five-week let-up after finishing last of seven at this track, beaten over 12 lengths behind God's Favorite when big odds. He did win on debut over 820m as favourite, beating Xiaowuying by a head, so there is some ability in the profile. Even so, his only try at this distance was unplaced and the latest run offered little encouragement. He has plenty to turn around.

Broke through in good style at this track last start, winning by just under two lengths over 1230m as favourite after travelling right on the speed. That followed a sound second to Kojun Niko Shin, and her overall record of one win and seven places from nine starts highlights her consistency. She has placed twice from three at this track and distance and looks a major player again.

Has been below his best at the past two runs, most recently seventh at this track when beaten over 10 lengths after having his chance. The more encouraging angle is his record: two wins from four starts overall, one win from three at this track and distance, and two wins from three with Tomohiro Yoshimura. If he finds his earlier form, he can be a factor for the minors.

Returns from a three-month break after finishing second last at Mombetsu, beaten over 19 lengths and unwanted in the market. The start prior was also well below the mark when fifth in a small field, beaten over 15 lengths. She has won once from five starts, but this is her first attempt at around 1400m and recent race form leaves her with plenty to prove.

Returned to winning form in dominant fashion at this track last start, scoring by eight lengths after sweeping home strongly as a very short odds-on favourite. She had been beaten only a neck by Mozu Heart the run before, so the recent form is robust. Her one win and four places from five starts at this track and distance make her one of the key winning chances.

Was beaten a long way at this track last start after conceding a huge start and never getting into the race. That followed a distant last behind Bhadra, also at this venue, when sent out at long odds. She has a previous win on the board, but five unplaced runs at this track and distance leave her facing a stern task against these.

Won on debut over 820m at this track, beating Comet Tail by a length after settling just off the lead, but the step to this level last start was disappointing. She finished tenth, beaten over 13 lengths behind Mami Yuga, and offered little after being in touch. Third-up improvement is possible, though she profiles more as a place hope than a confident win play.

Returns from a two-month let-up after finishing sixth at this track, beaten a long way behind Bhadra when dropping out of the race. Her debut win was much better, scoring by four lengths over 820m after travelling just behind the lead and picking up strongly. One win from two starts keeps her in calculations, but the latest performance makes her a guarded place chance.

Was fifth at this track last start, beaten just over six lengths behind Joy D'Or, after being close enough but unable to finish it off. The start prior was sound enough for third behind God's Favorite, and his wider profile reads well for this: one win and one place from four at this track and distance, race fitness, and F Komaki aboard. He brings the right credentials to take this out.

Won over 820m at this track last start as favourite, driving late to score by half a length from Prayer Akira. That was a sharp turnaround from her previous seventh behind Bhadra, when beaten out of sight at generous odds. Her overall record is useful, with one win and three places from five starts, but her only run around 1400m was unplaced. A minor placing looks the safer assessment.

Led narrowly at this track last start before being swamped late and finishing sixth, beaten nine lengths behind Mami Yuga. She had been safely held in an ALLOW at Kyoto the run before, finishing last and beaten over 20 lengths. One win and one place from three starts at this venue offers some support, but her two distance runs have both missed the frame. Others make stronger appeal.
