City Of Sails Sprint Pbd

Prize Money: $5,999

GOLDSTAR JOBLIN (3) is having his first start around this track. Missed the frame last time when 4th and beaten 5 lengths (26.01) at Manawatu. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. PRIORITY (6) could manage only second at Addington last time but caught the eye when posting a dazzling 16.87 over 295m at Addington the start prior. Top win two back and rates a key player again. GOLDSTAR BRUISER (1) is progressing well with another good run last time, placing (21.32) at Manawatu. Goes very well from this draw with six wins and three minor placings from 11 starts. Racing well and deserves a win. BIG TIME AXEL (2) is building a nice sequence of wins and will be in the mix again.

Missed the frame last start when fourth but had been in strong form prior to that, winning three on end before placing two back. Shapes well here on best and gets chance to atone.
