Sonoda Race 8 - Race 8 - 1230
BELLAGIO FOCUS (6) First up after a break. Winner by 2 1/2L last run at this venue and putting a tidy record together so far. Jockey Tomohiro Yoshimura adds value. Looks to be in good shape and must go close today. KUKUNA ZINC (2) Finished 7th last start at Himeji. Should improve here and has a positive barrier. Looking sharp on the track this campaign and returns to a longer distance. Can win this. STEP EYE (5) Clearly outclassed when 10th last time at Himeji. Looks to have a good chance of placing. YOSHINO AVANCE (4) Finished 8th last start at Himeji. Worth keeping safe.

Odds of $101.00 and ran 6th last start at Himeji but can save some energy from the barrier. Can't suggest backing.

Came in 7th last start at Himeji. Should improve here and can find a nice position from the draw. Producing consistent results since resuming from a spell. Good chance of taking this out.

Finished 3rd last start at Himeji and going up in trip. Should be swooping on the field late. Potential to run into a place.

Was $35.00 and finished 7th last run at Himeji but back over extra ground. Should come to hand quickly. Highly unlikely it will trouble the judge.
