Sonoda Race 8

1400

Stake: $15,513

SUCCESS CANON (7) was safely held when fifth last time out over 1400m here after a win at this track at the previous outing. Toyokazu Tano is a key engagement. Can do much better this time. KEIAI MANUKA (6) proved too strong two runs ago but was less impressive last time out when fourth over 1400m at this track. Can bounce right back. ELEGANT FLEUR (3) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago then last time out finished fourth over 1400m at this track. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. SOUND HERO (2) didn't measure up last time over 1400m at this track, finishing back in sixth. Well placed and should be about the mark.

At the latest run raced behind the speed prior to fading 7th of 12 at this track on June 6 over 1400m, 11 len behind Rich Hunter carrying 53kg at $62.30. The start before that 4th of 8 at this track on May 15 over 1400m, 8 len behind Red Acteur carrying 53kg at $17.30. Might just find this lot a bit smart.
