GOING: G(4)

WAITOMO-KIWIS FUELING KIWIS RATING 75 1400m

Track: GOOD4     True  

Genuine pace headed by Toa Haka from his wide draw. FULL MOON FEVER (8) is a course winner already. Each way here drawn the ace. He can handle most types of footing. MOVIE GIRL (7) she is course proven. Awkward draw once again but a quinella and trifecta chance here still. TOA HAKA (4) is live on a hat-trick. Drawn out here but he can cope. Yet to miss the top three here on the track. Chance in this line up. GEMMA FLITZ (6) was a good third fresh up. She has won second up before and is a multiples must in this field. Drawn wide but can cope. KABUGEE (2) his last two runs have been very good. Dual course winner. Has won on dry and wet. Ticks a lot of boxes. SUGGESTED PLAY: Full Moon Fever is a win wager.
