Hatrick Straight Race 5

BALDRICKS CUNNING PLAN C3/4 313M PBD

Prize Money: $3,727

BIG TIME TRACTOR (1) produced a moderate performance last time when seventh at Wanganui over 520m behind Pure Precision (30.83) in a Class 5. Comes through a solid form race last start. Faces a significant drop in class today and can bounce back. OPAWA DANNY (2) stalked the lead and fought on well to finish 3.5 lengths away in third (25.90) at Cambridge Raceway in a Class 4/5 over 457m. The form from his last run is stacking up nicely. Expected to feature again. STOLEN SAPPHIRE (3) boasts a consistent overall record including four wins from 20 starts, but missed the frame latest when fourth (17.66) over 313m at this track. Has a good record here at this journey. Looks well placed here and has the ability. OPAWA INGRID (4) is one of the chances after a minor prize in a tight go last start. Odds will be appealing.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage seventh last time out over 520m at Wanganui. Down grades and dangerous.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (17.66) in a Class 3, finishing a 7 length fourth. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed four times. Keep safe.

Hit the frame latest (26.00) when second at Cambridge Raceway in a Class 3/4. Goes well out of this box with a win and 12 minors. Definite contender.

In the money at all his runs at this track and trip. Last start finished seventh on April 16 over 457m at Cambridge Raceway behind Mocha To Go, beaten 17 lengths (26.80) in a Class 3/4. One to run through all combination bets.

Good effort to win last start by a head over 313m at this track in a handy (17.53), beating Groot's Galaxy. Meets a tougher field today.

Could manage only seventh last time but turned heads the start prior when she clocked a hot 17.26 over 313m finishing second at this track. Others rate better this time.
