Hatrick Straight Race 3

THE TAB DOG C1 313M FEATURE PBD

Prize Money: $2,273

CHURN IT UP (5) has been hard to follow lately, running fourth (17.80) last time but prior to that ran very well when placed at this track. Will find this more suitable and can atone. OPAWA MAX (6) has a moderate overall strike-rate. Hit the board with a minor placing last time when second (17.79) at this track. Solid record at the distance winning four races. The form from his last run stacks up well. Leading chance. CHIP (2) wasn't far away at the finish when 5th and beaten only 4 lengths (17.78) at this track. Has the ability to give this a shake. CHIP'S REVENGE (7) picked up a cheque when third last time and is in the mix again.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (17.80) in a Class 1, finishing a 2.5 lengths fourth. Has two placings from four starts from the draw. Key chance and should go close.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage seventh last time out over 660m at Manawatu. Likely to find this a bit tough.
