Nowra Race 7

Tony & Valetta Mcdonald Memorial

Prize Money: $4,215

AUGUST BOB (2) has a strong record this journey here with two wins and a minor from four starts. In the money last time at this track (29.90) in a NG, finishing a 1.3 lengths second. Looks well placed and should feature. KRAMER'S MEMORY (1) filled the minor money two on end before breaking through for a deserved win last time, scoring at this track over 520m (29.81). Winner at his latest appearance in one of the quickest times on the card. One of the key runners again. NICKO KING (7) was safely held last time out, finishing seventh at this track over 520m behind Omega Travis (30.49) in a NG. Was in the money the start prior. Can figure in the finish. NATURAL ESSENCE (4) is always hard to beat when she races here at this trip.

Comments

Far too good last start to post a big 8 lengths win at this track over 520m (29.81) beating Mrs Dimaggio in Grade 4/5 on January 20. Makes plenty of appeal on the back of the latest win.

Hit the frame at this track last time when a 1.3 lengths second but did record a solid 29.90 over the 520m trip. Has the ability and looks hard to top.

Hit the frame at Goulburn last time when a 3 length second but did record a strong 24.76 over the 440m journey. This tougher but prefer for a place this time.

Could only manage fell last time but the start prior hit the frame when second (30.05) over 520m at Wentworth Park. Awkwardly drawn but is among the better hopes.

Good effort at double-figure odds last time when third (30.41) over 520m at this track. Awkward draw to overcome. Will need plenty of luck.

Was out of placings last time (30.52) at this track in a NG, finishing eighth and beaten 10 lengths. Has never missed the frame from four starts from the draw, including a win. Looking to others.

Could manage only seventh last time but impressed the start prior when he clocked a fast 29.95 over 520m finishing second at this track. Can slot into the minors again.

Comments

Was out of the placings last time but the start prior finished in the minors when third (24.82) at big odds over 440m at Goulburn. Has to overcome a wide draw but is worth plenty of thought.

Expected Early Speed:Midfield
