GOING: S(5)

AUCKLAND CO-OP TAXIS 1200m

Track: SOFT 5     Out 8m  

Anticipating good pressure with many of these lining up for the first time. GOLDEN WINGS (1) is a 3yo gelding on debut. Has won both his trials. Dam has left two multiple winning foals with Sixth Generation (4 wins). Win chance here. SHAVASANA (6) has raced super in two of three runs this time in. Ace barrier. Cannot be omitted. MISS FLADGATE (7) was a good second on debut clockwise. Average at her last start fresh up. Clockwise suits. Best draw to date. Trifecta and first four must. MADAME KIWI (10) is a filly by Staphanos on debut. Twice trialled for a win and a second. Drawn to be a chance here. Dam has left two winning foals with Kiwi Man (3 wins) the most prolific. Drawn well. LADY SOLITAIRE (11) is a three-year-old filly making debut by Tivaci out of Ritzy Sparkle. Has had five trials for a second and a fourth. Well draw here so not entirely out of the picture. SUGGESTED PLAY: Golden Wings is a win wager.
