Sonoda Race 9

1400

Prize Money: $26,397

AZU GREATER (1) was well in commission when resuming last start over 1400m at this track when fourth. Record at this journey is impressive with three wins and two placings from six runs and is sure to run well. TAGANO HIMOROGI (3) was sent out favourite last time and scored by 2.5 lengths at this track. Has four wins here. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset and can measure up. CROWN ARABIAN (8) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago at Himeji but was not as effective last time out when fifth over 1400m at this track. Has his share of ability and finds a suitable race. GIRLS' HEROINE (10) was far too good first up last start when she scored by 4 lengths over 1400m at Himeji. Open to plenty of improvement and is worth including.

Last start 9th of 11 at this track on March 11 over 1400m, 24 len behind Mild Prime with 56kg at $28.50. The race before that second last of 10 at Himeji on February 13 over 1400m, 8 len behind Windy Palace with 56kg at $22.40. Happy enough to dismiss in this field.

Useful mare. Most recently favourite; won by 2.5 len at this track March 12 over 1400m defeating Techno Express carrying 54kg at $1.70. The start before that 2nd of 12 at this track on January 9 over 1400m, neck behind Crown Arabian carrying 54kg at $2.70. No reason she cannot salute again.

Useful type. Most recently 5th of 11 at this track on March 11 over 1400m, 8 len behind Shimme Krosa carrying 56kg at $6. The race before that won by 1.75 len at Himeji February 19 over 1400m defeating Copano Jumping with 56kg at $1.50. Capable of more – worth another chance.

Second run back. First-up after five months scored a big 4 len win at Himeji March 6 over 1400m defeating Hello Tschuss with 54kg at $112.70. Previously second-up won by 0.8 len at this track November 1 2023 over 1400m defeating Hiro Shige Sunrise carrying 54kg at $1.80. Don't underestimate.
