---|---|---|---|---|
Plenty of first starters engaged which makes it tricky to map, but we can assume a solid tempo. JUSTBETRYIN' (2) showed far more resilience last start with a tongue tie on for the first time, battling on gamely for third in a busy finish over this trip at Wagga. Beautifully drawn and in a modest affair gets his chance to open the account. AIRFIELD (12) has not raced since a poor debut at Hawkesbury on 20 February. Trialled well prior to that so he probably has more to offer. Worth some thought despite a tricky gate. UYTAAHKOO (11) showed pace but tired late over today's journey at Wagga recently. Finds a much easier assignment this time and should give backers a sight. CHASING QUIVERS (6) was in the leading division and only felt the pinch close to home when returning after almost a year off the scene at Corowa recently. Gets the blinkers for the first time so she should be competitive again. Trust In A Gust debutant GIRLS GAMBIT (1) went okay in a recent Wangaratta jump-out. One to monitor for market support. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keen on Justbetryin'.
