Manukau Race 10

Auckland Cup Final (G1)

Prize Money: $72,727

ONE HOT BANDIT (7) is progressing well scoring last time out (30.38) at this track and bringing up his 24th career win. Great chance again. BOOM DYNAMITE (1) looks close to another win after finishing second last time (30.40) at this track. Boasts three wins from four starts out of this box. Leading player again. CHIEF DRIBBLE (3) goes very well this trip starting 14 times for five wins and four minors. Scored by 1.3 lengths last time (30.27) in a Class 5 H over 527m at this track. Looks one of the chances. XISCO BALE (5) raced on the pace and got home last start. Sure to run well again.

Comments

Was in the placings last time but prior to that was an eye-catching winner after leading throughout, scoring by 2.75 lengths in a R/A FIN at Cambridge Raceway and clocking a hot 25.42 for the 457m trip. Expected to push the clock again here.
