Sonoda Race 8 - Race 8 - 820
Limited exposed form to go on, so leaning to the lightly weighted 3yo brigade: MORE BETTER (4) appeals at 52kg and a soft middle draw to land handy over 820m, while EARTH JEWEL (6) also gets 52kg and similar speed claims. SOLESMES (1) maps to use the inside and has 55kg, which is workable at this trip. Of the older mares, T O VARNAY (5) brings a slight weight edge at 53kg and can stalk for late impact. Narrow preference for MORE BETTER (4) in a sharp dash where position and light weights look decisive.
