Sonoda Race 8 - Race 8 - 1700

CLASSICAL KAISER (1) resumes after 109 days but brings strong credentials, having won his last start at Sonoda over 1700m by 3.5L and boasting a solid track record. THE TIMES (5) is also a key chance, coming off a last-start win at this track and distance by 2.5L. GOLDEN LONDON (3) has been consistent with three placings from his last five runs, including a 2nd at Sonoda over 1400m two starts back. WISPY SNOW (2) placed 3rd at Sonoda over 1400m last start and is racing consistently. JOSHO TYPE (6) has placed twice in his last five but needs to improve off a recent unplaced effort. Classical Kaiser (1) and The Times (5) look the main hopes based on recent winning form.

Recent form includes two thirds at Himeji over 1400m before finishing 8th and 11th at Sonoda, most recently beaten 22.55L on soft going. Steps up to 1700m here, a trip where he has placed twice from seven attempts. Has struggled to win but can find a minor placing with the right run.
