GOING: S(7)

TARANAKI WANGANUI NZ THOROUGHBRED BREEDERS ASSOCIATION 1350m

Track: SOFT7     Rail out 3m from 1200m to 325m (cutaway rail at 325m)  

Good pace expected with Stipulator, Finest Hour and Duneagle paving the way. CHAMPAGNE LINDA (10) is in super form this campaign so far. Placed in both of her course runs and can handle all types of footing. Logical winner of this field. BELLEZOR (9) is proven fresh up. Has won on dry and wet ground as well. Include wide draw and all here. GOHUGO (4) has won and placed here. He is proven on dry and wet footing. In the multiples mix here undoubtedly. RAGAMUFFIN (5) has won fresh up before. He is proven on dry and wet ground. The tote will be very telling indeed with this particular runner. STIPULATOR (12) is always a place and first four chance in field like this. Drawn well. A 2kg claim helps her cause no end too. SUGGESTED PLAY: Champagne Linda is a win wager.
