CAMBRIDGE RACEWAY   23 Apr 2026
 
GOING:

NZMCA PARKING ON SITE MOBILE PACE 2200m

Track: GOOD      

LINCOLN LINDA (8) will find this easier than her last attempt in a good line-up of fillies. Had looked close to a win when runner-up in her previous two outings here. May need a bit of luck negotiating a very wide starting position but could break through if it comes her way. OPA'S GIRL (2) has had four runs this prep without filling a placing but they have been in stronger races than this and she beat Lincoln Linda home last start. Has winning claims from a low draw. TWIST AND TANGO (6) got it wrong last time but had come from this barrier for a win when resuming three back at this venue so is capable on her day. MIKI MIRAGE (5) placed the last time she raced here three back and is proven at this circuit and distance so may show more.
