1230m - 1870m

Comments

Returns from a three-month break after finishing sixth in a 4yo+ C1 over 1400m at Sonoda, beaten just under ten lengths when unwanted in the market. His previous run was a long-margin last over 1700m behind Hercules Tower, and he is unplaced in seven runs at this track. The class drop helps, but the sharp return to 820m asks for a much better response.

Comments

Finished last here two weeks ago in a 3yo+ C1, beaten over 17 lengths by Fairy Taizan after settling rearward and making no impression. That followed another last placing in 3yo+ B2 grade, beaten out of sight behind Marble Halo. A class drop is some help, but he was unwanted in both markets and has a steep form turnaround to make.

Comments

Dropped out to seventh in 3yo+ B2 grade at Sonoda last start, beaten nine and a half lengths by Smile Clark after settling rearward. The start prior was weaker again, finishing second last and beaten over 17 lengths by Fuseno Aurora. Coming back in trip and class gives him a better setup, but his recent finishing effort remains the issue.

1400m - 1870m

Comments

Was tailed off over 1870m at Sonoda last start when long odds, and his previous 1400m run was also well held, beaten over 17 lengths by Alan. The return to 820m is not without some hope given he has placed twice from six runs at the track and distance, but recent form says he must improve sharply to trouble the better chances.

Comments

Had every opportunity from a handy position when eighth to Gift Basket at Sonoda last start, beaten over 12 lengths, so there was no obvious excuse. Her previous sixth behind Le Vent Vert was more competitive, beaten just under three lengths after travelling prominently. The class drop gives her a way back into the race, but she looks more a place hope than a confident win play.

Comments

Continued a strong patch when second to Haste over 1230m at Sonoda last start, beaten a length at generous odds. Before that he beat Timeless Love by three lengths in 3yo+ C2 grade, and his overall record of 12 wins from 44 starts is backed by eight wins at this track and distance. Races handy and the return to 820m suits his profile; he is a genuine winning threat again.

Comments

Has been safely held in both recent Sonoda runs, finishing eighth behind Harienju last start when beaten over 15 lengths at long odds. Two back he was second last to Crown Heart, well beaten by 23 lengths after conceding a big start. His career record is respectable, but current form and a winless track profile make this a demanding assignment.

Comments

Improved third-up when fourth to Fairy Taizan at Sonoda a fortnight ago, beaten four and a half lengths after racing close enough but not quite finishing it off. Her first run back over 1230m was poor, yet the broader record is appealing: two wins from five starts here and a win from two attempts at the distance. With that upside, she looks one of the stronger winning chances.

Expected Settling Position: Leader

Comments

Has produced two honest Sonoda efforts, finishing fifth to Fairy Taizan last start and fourth to Gift Basket the run prior, each time working home fairly rather than threatening. He has one win and five placings from 29 tries at the track and distance, so the setup is familiar. The concern is a modest recent win strike-rate, making him a sound place chance rather than the top pick.

Expected Settling Position: Midfield

Comments

Ran third to Gift Basket at Sonoda last start, beaten just under five lengths after leading to the turn and trying hard. The run prior was also solid when fifth to Le Vent Vert, beaten two and a half lengths while near the top of betting. With two wins and two placings from 13 at this track and distance and only 53kg, he has the right credentials to take this out.

820m - 1230m

Comments

Was a long way below her best when second last behind L'Immensite over 1230m at Sonoda, beaten over 19 lengths after getting well back. The run before is the better guide, finishing fourth to Le Vent Vert as favourite and beating Vent Saisonnier home. She has won at this track and distance, but needs to rebound before she can be trusted as more than a place hope.

Expected Settling Position: Off Pace

Comments

Kept on from back in the field when sixth to Fairy Taizan here last start, beaten just over six lengths at generous odds. The start prior was also a midfield-to-rear effort when last behind Fiorino, beaten just over six lengths. Her four wins and three placings from 14 at the Sonoda 820m are hard to ignore, but recent form says she is better suited to exotics.
