JOAN MEATES MEMORIAL 1150m Track: SOFT 6 True |
||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Teemoo and Modette can be prominent. TEEMOO (5) is a stablemate of the top pick who was also third at Reefton on Wednesday. He is peaking at the right time and is the main threat. Each way. GOOD CRAIC (6) may never win a race, but was a bold runner-up at Ashburton last time out. She has a good gate, and only needs to settle handy to the pace to be an each-way chance again. RED MOON RISING (1) will be peaking third up, and is worth including in all combinations. RECITAL (11) did not fire at Riccarton just over 8 weeks ago. She cops a wide gate, but on her earlier form, she is not out of this. Include in all combinations. SUGGESTED PLAY: Teemoo each way.
