Manukau Race 5

SPORTSBOWL FUNCTION CENTRE SERIES HEAT 3 PBD

Prize Money: $2,273

HELENA JET (7) finds it hard to win. Finished in the minors latest when second (18.97) at this track and may be close to breaking through. Has a good record here at this journey. Leading chance again. NOT ANOTHER (6) is worth forgiving last start after finishing sixth (21.89) in a Class 1 at Cambridge Raceway over 375m. The form out of last race has been strong. Leading chance. AFFECTIONATELY (2) has missed the placings at her last couple but was in the money three back when third (17.64) at Addington in a Class 1. Key player on best and worth another try. SWEET OFFER (4) can play a role in the finish without surprising.

Good effort at double-figure odds last time when third (21.91) over 375m at Cambridge Raceway. Drawn close to the inside. Has to do a bit more.

Hasn't been that impressive recently but he does have good record over this track and distance. Strong form emerging from the that last run. Leading chance.
