Hamilton Waikato Cup 16/12 Mdn 1100m Track: SLOW9 Rain Late Rail: Out 12m. |

---|---|---|---|---|
Unknowns but Simply Impeccable can use an inside gate. CONFESSIONAL will also be on-speed off the handy draw and can build on the solid 2U placing at Te Aroha when backed. She will get every chance with her race fitness. SIMPLY IMPECCABLE has placed both runs and was heavily-backed at Ellerslie the latest. Resumes off an inside gate and can go on to better things for Baker.
One of two maiden 3yo only races and has decent pace and some reputations on display too but the rail is out 12m here and the track will be a tricky wet and energy sapping being so heavily sand-slitted. SIMPLY IMPECCABLE showed dash last season in both outings and can swim. Win chance fresh up. CONFESSIONAL can swim too and has speed. Trifecta and first four chance. TOUGH KID was all the rage on debut after an easy trial win but lost his rider. Senior jockey atop today to get the job done. Raposa Rapida if started from a wide gate has to be included. Close up at debut and trialling well more than once prior. Campari won both her trials before a distant third on debut. Bred to get better and better. Ever Loyal won a trial last Autumn. Full brother to Bill "N' Eve (3 wins). SUGGESTED PLAY: A terrific race for the future and backing Confessional each way.
