WANGANUI-TARANAKI RACEHORSE OWNERS ASSOCIATION 1200m Track: GOOD 4 True |

|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Bodacious Kate is the likely leader at a keen tempo. SO WE GO (1) capped off some good form with a well-deserved and easy maiden win here just over 3 weeks ago. He won't find this much harder, and will again have the services of top hoop Bruno Queiroz. He is bred to improve with more racing, and we have him on top again. SAM'S TURN (4) lost his way earlier in the season, and his recent freshen up would have done him no harm. He has trialled up twice, and if he can find his best again, he would be hard to hold out. CONFIANZA (5) was a tough winner on debut and then was all fizzed up before the start last time out at Tauranga. She can make amends in this field, so give her another chance. LA DULCIN'EE (2) has turned a corner in her last couple of starts, and she was a comfortable winner here just over 6 weeks ago. Include in all top 4 combos. SAKURA ROSE (8) resumes from a spell, and she has a good draw. She is capable, and the market will be out best guide. SUGGESTED PLAY: So We Go can win again.
