Sonoda Race 5

820

Stake: $15,635

LEONARD STAR (12) finds it hard to win but was in the finish last time when beaten 0.8 lengths into second over 820m at this track. Will be handy despite the tricky draw. Sure to be in the finish. VELENOSI (1) scored at this track last time out with 1.5 lengths to spare over today's journey. Has started three times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Rates highly and can measure up. YOUNG BLOOD (9) is in winning form after scoring as favourite last time out by a nose over 820m at this track. Has started seven times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Among the chances. SUN HANANOAME (3) strode forward early from her wide draw to settle just off the lead last start then lifted to score by half a length at this track over 820m. In form and worth including.

Useful type. Most recently tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; won by 0.5 len at this track March 26 over 820m defeating Kurino Nina with 54kg at $2.70. The start before that 10th of 12 at this track on March 11 over 1400m, 16 len behind God Amavel with 54kg at $74.40. Sure to be tough to beat from an inside alley.

Going well. At the latest run tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 10 at this track on April 3 over 820m, 1.3 len behind Rapunzel Moon with 55kg at $17.30. The run before that tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; won by 2 len at Himeji March 4 over 800m defeating Baia Specter with 54kg at $2.20. No surprise if she was in the finish.

Comes off a 29 day let-up. Most recently 6th of 10 at this track on March 19 over 820m, 6 len behind Zealous Efforts with 53kg at $48. The run before that made ground from midfield; 3rd of 10 at Himeji on February 27 over 800m, 2.75 len behind Nishino Laevigata with 52kg at $9.30. Likely to feel the pinch in this company.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 10 at this track on April 3 over 820m, 6 len behind Into The Flow carrying 55kg at $7.50. Before that sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 11 at this track on March 12 over 1400m, 32 len behind Pikku Prinssi with 54kg at $13. Cannot be ruled out despite a lacklustre effort last time.

Third-up today and placed third-up previously. First-up favourite; scored a big 4 len win at Himeji March 4 over 800m defeating Vip Nadja with 56kg at $2.60. Second run from a spell made ground from midfield; 2nd of 10 at this track on April 3 over 820m, 0.8 len behind Rapunzel Moon with 57kg at $1.40. Rates highly. Big chance.
