Cambridge Race 2

COPRICE WORKING DOG CHICKEN SPRINT PBD

Prize Money: $4,091

SENDING ME (5) is progressing well claiming her 4th career win latest, scoring by a long neck (19.00) at Manukau. Has a very good strike-rate from this draw, with three wins from four starts. Is the a class 3 rated dog in a class 2 race. Has hit winning form and can measure up again. VAL JEWEL (7) had won two in a row before finishing seventh (26.86) last time at this track. Found the distance to far last start. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. SWEET (8) failed to feature last start after settling well back at Manukau, but prior to that won by 2.75 lengths at Manukau (19.17) beating Dynamic Kiwi in a SPECA on July 12. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. OPAWA SELENA (2) getting on in years but can sneak into the finish again.

Won two starts back when well in the market at this track over 375m. Last start finished 7th on July 9 over 457m at this track behind Aces beaten 9 lengths (26.86) in a Class 1/2. The last run is a strong form reference. Great chance to atone.
