Sonoda Race 2

1400

Prize Money: $10,126

MEISHO RANZAN (8) brings the strongest winning profile after going under by only a neck at Sonoda when heavily supported into very short odds-on territory. His earlier 3yo+ C2 win, where he scored by a long way from Hyakumonogatari, gives the form line further substance, and six wins from twelve starts at this track and distance is the clearest race-winning statistic here. MEISHO TEN TEN (2) is the main danger if he rebounds from a plain seventh, as his previous second to Vie Hommage was much more competitive and he has an effective record with Kenta Sugiura. BLONDE ALE (9) resumes after three months with repeated market respect and two placings from four tries here at 1400m, though the maiden record keeps the win case guarded. SUN ELSA (3) is the steadier place profile, coming off two fourths and backed by a deep Sonoda 1400m record, but she must find more than consistency to turn that into a win.

Comments

Was safely held here last start, finishing sixth behind Sweet Sunrise and beaten over 14 lengths after settling close enough and only battling. The prior third behind Radiant Eye was better, though still beaten seven and a half lengths. Her three wins and ten places from 27 starts at Sonoda over 1400m give some support, but recent form leaves her with a fair amount to turn around.

Expected Settling Position: Off Pace

Comments

Returns from a two-month freshening after a disappointing seventh here behind Shine Chouchou, beaten over 13 lengths when near the top of betting. That run was well below his previous second to Vie Hommage, where he fought on and was beaten two lengths. Barrier two and a good record with Kenta Sugiura help him rebound, and he remains a serious chance if he recaptures the July form.

Worked home soundly for fourth behind Lily Park at Sonoda last start, beaten just over five lengths at generous odds. She had also finished fourth behind Lingus Warrior two back, although the margin was ten lengths after settling rearward. Her two wins and 19 places from 57 starts at this track and distance point to reliability, with the profile of a genuine place runner rather than a dominant winning force.

Placed last start but the margin tells the story, finishing third behind Sweet Sunrise and beaten over 11 lengths at long odds after only working home evenly. She had been beaten over 13 lengths by Radiant Eye the run before when unwanted in the market. Four wins at this track and distance are respected, but her current form needs to rise sharply.

Finished well held behind Camouflage here last start, dropping out sharply after being close enough to make an impact. That followed a seventh behind Coin A Phrase, beaten over 12 lengths after failing to respond in the straight. She has placed often enough at Sonoda 1400m to have background claims, but the latest two runs make her hard to recommend.

Was beaten over 14 lengths by Sweet Sunrise when fifth here last start, close enough if good enough but lacking the dash to be competitive. Two back she finished second last behind Smart Kanathos at long odds and was never a factor. Still a maiden after 14 starts and unplaced in five attempts at Sonoda 1400m, so others make far stronger appeal.

Returns from a two-month freshening after consecutive thirds at Sonoda, most recently behind Iromegane when beaten ten lengths. The run prior was more competitive, finishing four lengths from Coeur Et Cassis while near the top of betting. His career record is solid, with six wins and 21 places from 47 starts, but recent efforts profile more as a place chance than a clear winning threat.

Made a strong return at Sonoda when second to Glory One, beaten a neck after fighting hard as a heavily supported odds-on runner. His previous run was a dominant 3yo+ C2 win here, scoring by a long way from Hyakumonogatari, and the six wins from twelve starts at this track and distance are compelling. With Tomohiro Yoshimura back aboard, he sets a clear standard.

Returns from a three-month break after finishing second to Selena Risu at Sonoda, beaten five lengths when near the top of betting but only battling on. She had earlier run fifth behind Billowy Dada after being sent out favourite and picking up in the straight. Four career placings and two from four at this track and distance keep her in the minor-money mix, though the maiden record tempers confidence.
