GOING: H(10)

NEW WORLD OTAKI MAIDEN 1600m

Track: HEAVY 10     True  

The race pace here looks to be not too bad in this Maiden Mile for half the distance. DAMIANO (1) has raced well in two of three runs this time in. Only went one mediocre race in five runs of his first campaign. Has been course placed before and is a win chance here drawn well. BUTTON YA LIP (8) has been second in three of her last five starts. Quinella must in this lineup. WEOWNARANAWAY (9) has run two good thirds so far this time in. Trifecta and first four must in this lineup as a win is close at hand. GO TRIGGER (3) the best run of his career so far came at his last start. Definite improver. WAZA DREAM (11) her only placing so far came third up. Wide draw but not out of this at all. SUGGESTED PLAY: Damiano is a win wager.
