Nowra Race 7

Wow At Stud Sprint

Prize Money: $2,630

LUNA ZEAL (5) goes very well at the course and distance with four wins and a placing from six starts. Comes off a (20.49) win last time, scoring by 6 lengths in a Grade 5 over 365m at this track. Rates a leading player. NICKO JACK (7) missed the frame last time when fifth (17.51) in a NG at Dapto after a slow start and settling well off the pace. Placed the start prior (17.51) at Dapto after firing out of the boxes. Has a strong winning record here. Worth following up. SHADOW DASH (2) missed the frame latest when fifth at Goulburn (25.14) but scored three back at Wentworth Park (30.13). Worth another chance. COFFEE AND CREAM (1) is worth including.

Didn't make the placings last time at Richmond (18.86) in a Grade 4/5, finishing a 10 length eighth. Has two wins and eight placings from 15 starts from the draw. Looks one of the chances.

Latest effort finished 5th in a Grade 5 on April 11 over 440m at Goulburn behind Aussie Blend beaten 5.5 lengths (25.14). Looks well placed and should prove hard to beat.

Missed the frame last start when a 6 length fourth (18.71) at Richmond. Previous form sound including a win three back at Richmond. Looks a strong place chance on best figures.
