Hatrick Race 4

SPORTZ BAR WANGANUI C2 520M

Prize Money: $5,455

MAILMAN'S COMING (3) finished third (26.15) two back at Manawatu but out of the placings last time when 6th there. Yet to win out of this box but has been in the placings two times from four starts. Disappointing last start but prior form had been rock solid. Looks the one to beat on his best form. ALL OVER ROVER (6) goes very well this course and distance starting 26 times for nine wins and seven minors. Comes off a (25.67) win last time, scoring by 6 lengths in a Class 2 over 457m at Manawatu. With even luck and a clean start should be around the money. RATHER CONVINCED (4) turned spotting a big start finishing fourth (26.38) last time in a Class 2 at Manawatu. Has a strong winning record here at this journey. Has ability and can atone. PICK THE GAP (5) boasts a solid strike-rate over this track and distance. Tricky box to overcome but has the ability to do so.

Didn't make the placings last time at Manawatu (26.59) in a Class 2, finishing a 13 length sixth. Yet to win but has placed two times from this draw. Well placed and should feature.

Won two starts back after racing on the pace at this track over 520m in 30.55. Couldn't repeat the feat last time out when eighth over 457m at Manawatu at Class 2 level. Is a danger.

Comes off a (25.67) win last time, scoring by 6 lengths in a Class 2 over 457m at Manawatu. Goes very well from the draw boasting one victory and two places from six starts. Expected to measure up again.

Found the going tougher last start when third over 457m at Manawatu. That followed a win two back in 26.24 beating Cloud Booming over 457m at Manawatu. Others better.
