AWAPUNI SYNTHETIC   17 Jul 2025
 
GOING:

HYGAIN TRACKTORQUE 1400m

Track: SYNTHETIC     True  

Just a moderate tempo headed by Our Akashinga, Jus Wing It and Gee String. OUR AKASHINGA (7) ended up getting too far back in the running as an odds-on favourite here 25 days ago and ran on too late. She has leading hoop Bruno Queiroz replacing an apprentice this time, and even though she is racing out of her rightful maiden class, she is still the one to beat here. Follow your money. SHIVOO (2) has been placed on a poly track in the past and is having only his second run on a similar surface here. He benefits from a 2kg claim, and in this modest field, he can figure in the top 3. JUS WING IT (4) she led up in her last couple of starts and has only weakened late. She is the likely pacemaker in this from the pole position, and will be very hard to peg back. REDANA (3) has been battling for some time and was not far away from the winner when finishing fifth here nearly a fortnight ago. Include in all combinations, in what is a very weak field. TIMEX (10) is on debut, and in this sort of field, she should make a positive impact. Use the market as your guide. SUGGESTED PLAY: Our Akashinga should be winning this.
