Manukau Race 6

MT WELLINGTON TAB SPRINT PBD

Prize Money: $4,091

VAL JEWEL (3) has been mixing form lately, hitting the frame two back before finishing fourth (21.91) at Cambridge Raceway in a Class 2. Better than last run and makes appeal this time. WAITERIMU GEM (8) comes off an average run last start when fifth at this track over 318m behind Portland Fleet (19.43) in a Class 2. Placed at her previous run. Solid formlines coming through her last run. Key runner who gets her chance to atone. FOREVER FLICKY (6) produced a moderate effort last time when sixth at this track over 318m behind Portland Fleet (19.44) in a Class 2. Should strip much fitter today and has the ability to give this a shake. WOW SHE'S SLOW (4) gets a chance to improve on an unplaced run at her latest outing at this circuit. Does down grade in class for this race.

Missed the frame last start when a 7 length fourth (19.41) at this track. Previous form sound including a win three back at this track. Shouldn't trouble the top few hopes.

Found some support last start but struggled and finished 5th on May 24 over 318m at this track behind Portland Fleet beaten 8 lengths (19.43) in a Class 2. Placed two back at this track. Fought on last time. Hard to beat with even luck.
