Hatrick Race 3

THE TAB BOX DOG C1 305M PBD

Prize Money: $2,636

PUSHING BUTTONS (7) recorded her 3rd career win last time at Wanganui Straight, scoring by a neck (17.78). Won at her only start from this box. In sparkling form and looks the one to beat again. BIG TIME GRANDE (4) last start finished 6th on September 5 over 305m at this track behind Big Time Battle beaten 2 lengths (18.12) in a Class 2. Down grades today and rates a key chance on best figures. POPPY JEM (8) produced a moderate run last time when sixth at this track over 520m behind Tapu Girl (31.02) in a Class 1/2. Likely to be thereabouts now she is back to the sprint journey. SWEET RED (2) cannot be left out after placing at a big quote last start. Low draw should suit.

Finished third last start (21.70) at big odds over 375m at Manawatu. Drawn close to the inside. Cannot be ignored based on that sound recent effort.

Could only manage fourth last time but the start prior hit the frame at double figure odds when third (18.07) over 305m at this track. Among the chances.

Was out of placings last time (18.12) at this track in a Class 2, finishing sixth and beaten 2 lengths. Goes very well from the draw boasting three victories and four places from 12 starts. Makes strong appeal.

Has finished sixth at her last couple of starts, most recently at this track over 305m. Coming out of a very strong form race. Capable of taking this out.

Good effort last time when third (18.17) over 313m at Wanganui Straight. In the money last time but this is a stern test.

Has been in a purple patch of form, putting three wins together. Last start won by a neck at Wanganui Straight (17.78) beating Grasscutter Moe in a Class 1 on September 9. In hot form and can take this out.

Last start finished last on September 5 over 520m at this track behind Tapu Girl beaten 13 lengths (31.02) in a Class 1/2. Deserves another chance.
