Sonoda Race 11

1400

Prize Money: $415,391

SILENCE TIME (7) saluted at this track two runs ago. Decent effort last time out when in contention on the corner before finishing third over 1400m at this track, beaten 0.6 lengths. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he is good enough to play a major role. IGNITER (6) returns from a spell of ten weeks. Was safely held at the only appearance last prep when 11th over 1200m in Group 2 grade at Riyadh Dirt. Has a good record here at this journey with five wins and a minor placing from seven starts. Will be hard to stop. DON KA PONO (5) sat just off the speed and fought on well to finish second when resuming last start at this course and distance. Record here is impressive with three wins from nine starts. Expected to run well. SMART RAPTOR (10) started at $3.10 last time. Well fancied and did run well in fourth, beaten 2.5 lengths, at this track over 1400m. Wataru Hirose who has two wins when partnering stays on. Among the top-three hopes.

The run before that scored a big 4 len win at this track March 26 over 1700m defeating Bellagio Umamusuko with 57kg at $1.80. Don't underestimate.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run held ground to the line 3rd of 11 at this track on April 10 over 1400m, 0.6 len behind Scipio carrying 57kg at $1.60. Before that favourite; raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by 1.75 len at this track March 13 over 1230m defeating Cat's Rise with 56kg at $1.01. Went close last time. Leading player again.

At the latest run raced on speed throughout when 3rd of 11 at Kasamatsu on April 17 over 1400m, 2.5 len behind Fukuno Yildiz carrying 55kg at $12.90. The run before that came from midfield and won by 0.5 len at Kasamatsu February 20 over 1600m defeating Seven Colors with 55kg at $29.50. Needs plenty of luck to trouble the top few.

Comes here off a 39-day let-up. At the latest run got back early 7th of 12 at this track on March 27 over 1400m, 7 len behind Fukuno Yildiz carrying 55kg at $51.90. The race before that 4th of 10 at Himeji on January 29 over 1400m, 1.75 len behind Smart Raptor with 56kg at $19.70. Hard to make a case on recent form.
