Manukau Race 1

WAIUKU MITRE 10 EASY AS SPRINT PBD

Prize Money: $2,636

WAITERIMU GEM (8) is in top form, scoring by 1.2 lengths (19.08) over 318m at this track and making it back to back wins. Meets a similar field and ideally placed to take this out. BIG TIME LOCKEY (4) has a strong record this track and trip with 13 wins and 14 placings from 38 starts. In the money last time at this track (19.16) in a SPECA, finishing a 1.2 lengths second. Looks well placed here and among the chances. MIAMI TAN (2) has found the minor placings here at last couple of runs, finishing third last time beaten 1.75 lengths (19.20). Rounded off the race strongly last start. OPAWA JENNY (6) placed last start at this track and distance and is in the mix again. Is a newcomer to the veteran grade.

Hit the frame latest (19.16) when second at this track in a SPECA. Goes very well from the draw boasting five victories and eight places from 22 starts. Makes strong appeal.

Was in solid form before a spell but below expectations when resuming, finishing fifth over 318m at this track in 19.51. Overall winning strike-rate moderate. Will strip fitter but looks safely held.
