Wagga   17 Feb 2025
 
GOING: G(4)

RIVERINA LIVESTOCK AGENTS MAIDEN PLATE 1200m

Track: GOOD4   Clear (Max: 25)   Rail: +7m 1400m-W/Post, True Remainder.  

Pace looks genuine from Trev The Driller, King Czar and Magic Leprechaun, closely attended by Showtime Kistena. KING CZAR (7) pushed forward last time and boxed on to finish a neck away in second at Camperdown. Likely improver with strong prospects. SON OF EUREKA (9) has not raced since being well supported on debut back in May at Goulburn. Expected to have progressed during the break. The market will play a great guide. MAGIC LEPRECHAUN (1) strips fitter third-up and is nearing a win after finishing a close second last time out at Murwillumbah. Should park just off the speed. Winning claims on best figures. I AM MINK (6) returns and makes his stabled debut for Donna Scott. Impressed in recent Albury trial win and gets a key booking in McDougall. Can make a bright start. SUGGESTED PLAY: King Czar gets the nod.

Third-up today. Resumes off a 52 day letup. Resuming 3rd in a small field at Grafton Super Mdn-Sw on December 1 over 1100m, on a slow track; 1.75 len behind Aged Care with 59kg at $10. Second-up made some head-way from midfield; 2nd of 7 at Murwillumbah Mdn-Sw on December 27 over 1200m, nose behind Superzoom with 59kg at $2.60. Fitter now and making headway. Rates highly and should prove hard to beat.
