GOING: H(10)

WAIAU VALLEY SHEARING / APARIMA ELECTRICAL MAIDEN 1400m

Track: HEAVY 10     Out 3m  

From the wide draw Radiant Lass can cross and set the tempo in a race without genuine pace. RADIANT LASS (9) was just beaten fresh up for a new yard. Wide draw in this but can cope. She has been placed second up and can handle dry or wet. Looks the logical winner. SNOW BRAINER (6) was not too bad two starts ago. Better drawn and can pay a dividend today. LIGHT OF PLUTUS (1) is fresh up here. Is better than a twice placed gelding overall. Place and first four hope in this field. GENIEINABOTTLE (10) is a triple placegetter. Racing much better than it shows overall. Trifecta and first four chance in this. POLLY'S GURU (2) ran second at her first two starts on Heavy footing. Wide draw. Not out of this if she gets conditions to suit. SUGGESTED PLAY: Radiant Lass is a win wager.
