HE'S TOUGH (11) finished eighth last start, beaten 14 metres at Oamaru over 2000m. No favours expected from this draw. Finds a tougher race but he has the ability to test this field. RIGHTAZZ (13) drew wide last start and was easily accounted for, beaten 11 metres into seventh at Central Southland Raceway over 2400m. May just need a bit of luck at some point from this difficult draw. Taking on a better field but he is good enough to turn things around. DURRANT (2) is in the mix following a fifth at his most recent appearance over 2400m at Central Southland Raceway. THE BRICKLAYER (12) is next in line but might need a few good breaks from an awkward draw.

THE BRICKLAYER
W R BRYANT 3YO BAY GELDING W R Bryant Three-year-old gelding who has plenty of ability. Unlucky last start 10th (Sr4) over 2400m at Central Southland Raceway beaten 45 m by Transonic (2:54.60) in 3yo+ on December 14 at $15.60. It will pay to forgive the latest effort. |
