GOING: S

HARCOURTS OTAKI MAIDEN 1600m

Track: SOFT     True  

Genuine tempo with Scandalize and Whooshka pressing for the lead. BRADLEY (3) was a good improver second up. Well drawn in this field. Each-way all day in this particular line up. JOAN'S JOKER (4) is racing better than a single placing shows. Quinella and trifecta must in this race without a doubt. SCANDALIZE (5) has not gone a poor race so far. Wide gate here. Still a trifecta and first four must in this field. LETS ALL BOOGIE (8) has been placed in three of four runs here. Has run four seconds in her last five runs. Include her everywhere in this for certain. PORT CHALMER (6) his last start effort was very good. He has in fact run well in three of his four starts so far. Chance here for sure. SUGGESTED PLAY: Bradley and Scandalize are win wagers.
