Sonoda Race 2 - Race 2 - 1230
TORIO KACHIDOKI (3) appeals most after a handy 3rd over 820m on debut and looks suited stretching to 1230m. MILD AFTER (5) is the danger with a sound 3rd at this trip two starts back and recent efforts reading the best of these. DARAN DADAN (8) has a 3rd at Sonoda over 1400m this prep but needs to lift back to 1230m. FUKU BLANTON (2) has race fitness with three runs at 820m and steps to 1230m, though his margins suggest a minor hope. Narrow edge to TORIO KACHIDOKI (3).

Fourth up and draws much better, shifting from barrier 7 to 2. Last start at Sonoda over 820m on 16 Oct he finished 10th of 12, beaten 12.21L at $151.00. The kinder gate gives Fuku Blanton a chance to settle handier and show more at 1230m.

Back to 1230m after a 6th of 12 over 820m at Sonoda on 16 Oct when beaten 3.21L at $31.00. Prior run at this trip and track on 4 Sep reads well, finishing 3rd of 12 on soft and beaten 5.3L at $6.00. Wataru Hirose rides again for Ryouhei Hori, and that 1230m placing gives him a sound reference for this.

Third up and stretching from 820m to 1230m after a 9th of 11 here on 25 Sep when beaten 17.5L at $251.00. Tasuku Nagao sticks, and the extra trip gives him a different set-up to work with. Needs to lift on that latest effort but further fitness and the distance rise offer some upside for Est Jour.

Drops 2kg to 53kg and sticks to 1230m at Sonoda. Last start here on 23 Oct over 1230m finished 11th of 12, beaten 21.1L at $151.00 on firm ground, having also finished 10th of 12 over this trip on 14 Aug. With the weight relief and familiarity with the course and distance, a cleaner run can see her get closer.
