Sonoda Race 2

1400

Prize Money: $11,864

SHAN DIAN (3) settled well back and failed to live up to expectations over 1230m at this track last time out when in the market. That followed a good third the run prior. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. MJUK INDY (5) is back after a break of seven months. Looking to emulate his win at Kanazawa when returning from a spell last prep. Rates highly and is likely to be prominent. RUMILLION (6) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a spell, finishing fourth here. Worth plenty of thought. MONSTER (4) finished seventh in a 1400m contest at this track at his latest appearance. Nicely placed to find some form.

Last start second last of 8 at this track on August 22 over 1400m, 13 len behind Discree King carrying 52kg at $40.40. The run before that held ground to the line 3rd of 10 at this track on August 7 over 1400m, 2.25 len behind Rengano Kobutasan carrying 53kg at $4.60. Can do a lot better than that last run.
