Manawatu Race 1

Prize Money: $4,454

SMART BOWLER (7) turned in a moderate performance last time when eighth at Wanganui over 755m behind Grande Vue Ace (45.85) in a Class 2/3 FIN. Was in the money prior to that. Form from her last run is proving to be solid. Can atone. BIG TIME BANG (3) turned in a plain run last time when seventh at Wanganui Straight over 313m behind Thrilling Marvel (17.90) in a Class 4. Should be thereabouts. OPAWA LOUISE (5) turned spotting a big start finishing sixth (26.72) last time in a Class 1 at this track. Has a good record at this journey. Should play a prominent role. SWEET AND SASSY (4) cannot be left out after placing last start.

Latest effort finished 7th on December 11 over 313m at Wanganui Straight behind Thrilling Marvel beaten 7 lengths (17.90) in a Class 4. Has performed below expectations at his last couple but is capable of far better.

Placed last time (30.41) at Wanganui in a Class 1, finishing third and beaten 3.5 lengths. Yet to score but has placed each of three runs from this draw. Has ability and should be around the money.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (26.72) in a Class 1, finishing a 8 length sixth. Goes very well from the draw boasting one victory and four places from 10 starts. Makes appeal on best.

Disappointed last time but just missed the placings two back over 375m at this track. Needs to find a bit more.

Was a winner three back at Cambridge Raceway then finished in the minors before missing the frame last time when eighth (45.85) at Wanganui. Shapes well here on best and gets chance to atone.
