Sonoda

OKYOMPI (3) Finished 2nd last start at the track and hard to fault at this distance. Osamu Shimohara rates highly aboard. Been in the money 2 from 2 attempts this campaign. Key hope. BRANCH OUT (6) Back from a spell. Didn't find the line when 12th last start at Chukyo. Giving another chance here. Won't be far away during the run. Tomohiro Yoshimura is a plus. Definite winning chance. COEUR FIDELE (5) Came in 6th last start at Sapporo. Giving another go here but will be dropping in distance. First race for a new trainer. Has plenty of early speed. One of the hopes. AYRTON (2) First run back from a break. Didn't attack the line when 14th last start at Chukyo. Likely to bounce back and has a positive alley. Worth strong consideration.
