GOING: S

MATAMATA FUNCTION CENTRE 2000m

Track: SOFT 7     Out 9.5m  

The race pace in this Maiden event around two turns does not look too bad for the first half of the race but many will be gone well before the home turn. TALENTOSO (6) he has gone well in four of five starts (last two runs came here) and lost his rider the other time. Ready to win no matter the footing on offer today. CHINOOK (3) has run one placing and been five times fourth so his record is far better than it seems at a glance. Top tier must in this. WRY SMILE (9) has been not too bad in two of his three runs. Ace gate today so can pay a dividend or be first four. KEEPZ OCCURRING (5) has been twice placed. Has run two good fourths here. Include. JUST A KARIN (12) she has been three times placed and two of them have come here. Cannot be excluded. SUGGESTED PLAY: Talentoso and Chinook are win wagers.
