RAY WHITE CARNARVON HANDICAP 1400m

Track: GOOD     Rail: True.  

Genuine tempo from Wuhan Warrior leading Who's Your Mama. WUHAN WARRIOR (2) has really mixed his form this prep and seems to win when he is not fancied in the markets. He had no excuses as a beaten favourite here 3 weeks ago but is just as liable to turn his form right around and win this. The step up to 1400 metres could help and if he is in the right mood, he is the one to beat. WHO'S YOUR MAMA (3) dropped back in class last time out on this track and got the job done at long odds. That was only her second start for a new trainer and she will still be on the up with her fitness. She prefers to race in the clear on these tracks to avoid any track kick-back and another good run is on the cards. Stick with her. PASSPORT (1) has a very good record on this track, including 3 wins. He has needed both of his starts back from a spell and will be at his peak third up. He slides down in class and with the benefit of a 2-kilo claim, he will be hard to hold out. TOMMY TO JACK (6) is expected to run another honest race. Include in all combinations. SUGGESTED PLAY: Passport each-way.
