GOING:

POWER FARMING MANAWATU 1700m

Track: AW     True  

Just a modest tempo anticipated. LOVE JANIE (3) capped off some sound form on this track with an overdue win by a nose here 17 days ago. She gets to stay in the same class, and with only an extra 1.5kg to carry, she can repeat the dose. FLYING CELEBRATION (6) had to make up too much ground at Otaki on a very heavy track there 8 days ago and plugged away for eighth. She is making her poly track debut and can settle a lot closer this time from the pole position, and with Chris Dell replacing an apprentice, she can bounce straight back into the money. CALL A FRIEND (4) had an excuse for failing to fire as expected at Woodville 3 weeks ago. She has had a gear change since then and welcomes top hoop Bruno Queiroz back to the saddle. Stick with her. Each way. PLATINUM SIXTY SIX (1) loves this poly track here, and will be peaking third up. Can win. SUGGESTED PLAY: An even contest with Love Janie looking to go back-to-back.
