APPRECIATING OWNERS STICKING BY US

Prize Money: $7,455

OPAWA STACY (7) is a capable type and proved too strong last time to win by half a length at this track in a handy 38.08 beating OUR ERIN. Goes very well from this draw with eight wins and three minor placings from 13 starts. In sparkling form with a string of wins and can measure up again. TEXAS SNAKEBITE (3) is a talented type who has been in the money at the last four starts, the latest finishing third (38.23) at this track. Form here at the trip sound including three wins. Has a good overall strike-rate and can find the frame here. OUR ERIN (5) has a strong record this track and trip with five wins and five placings from 14 starts. Hit the frame latest (38.12) when second at this track in a Class 2/3. Predicted to lead this field early. OPAWA TOBY (6) cannot be ruled out with the step back up to the longer trip.
