GOING: S(6)

WAGGA FOOT CLINIC RIVERINA CUP 2500m

Track: Soft 6   Clouds (Max: 16)   Rail: +2m 1400m-W/Post, True Remainder.  

Genuine tempo from Final Comment leading Justifiably. WHISKER TO WHISKER (2) has struck some form with close-up fourths at her past couple including once around this distance. Find this no harder than last time and should take plenty of beating. JUSTIFIABLY (5) comes through the same race and finished just behind in fifth place after looking to have his chance. Will be better for the run around this trip and is worth another chance. DUE CALZINI (1) wasn't suited coming back in distance for the Forbes Cup so forgive that. Won well prior and could bounce back. FINAL COMMENT (3) has placed over this course previously so keep in mind and MONTGOMERY (4) next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Whisker To Whisker to win. Save on Justifiably.
