GOING: S(5)

CITY OF NAPIER SPRINT 1200m

Track: SOFT 5     Out 6m  

Plenty of pace with Idyllic and Bold Belle up front, pressured by Faraglioni and Fancy Like Lass. PIER (3) is a dual winner fresh up. Trial winner earlier this month and looked good. Rider atop is two for two on him. Looks the winner here. PLATINUM ATTACK (6) was just beaten here at last start. Triple track winner already. Top tier chance on dry or wet ground importantly. MAROTIRI MOLLY (1) she is a multiple class dropper resuming in this. Triple track winner so far. Trial winner last month. Cannot be omitted from anywhere for bettors. SLIPPER ISLAND (10) is a multiple class riser in this. Going for four wins in a row here. Drops 6kg. Cannot be ignored. TOMODACHI (9) she is live on a hat-trick in this. Proven on dry and wet footing and looks an up-and-comer. SUGGESTED PLAY: Pier is a win wager.
