HEAD TO TRACKSIDE.CO.NZ 1600m

Track: SOFT     True  

There looks to be ample pace and pressure in this field from barrier rise. WHAT YOU WISH FOR (3) is a class riser here. Has won and placed when second up. Senior rider on. Must be a top-tier prospect in this field. COGNITO (1) is a multiple-class dropper resuming. Has had three fresh-up runs for two wins and a placing. Twice trialled. Group 2 winner. Serious win chance for sure in this. JOLTED (9) resumes here but ran well in a trial earlier this month. Winning rider atop today. Has won on dry and wet ground. HIGH COUNTRY (12) is a big improver after a fresh up fifth. Won his Maiden second up. Cannot be left out. RUSSIAN SATIRE (5) is an improver on her fresh-up run. Course proven. Include on dry or wet ground here. SUGGESTED PLAY: Jolted and High Country are win wagers.
