Wagga Race 8

DOVE LAKE (7) kicked off her career in good style a week-and-a-half ago, coming from the back row and racing wide in the latter stages when beaten 3 metres into second at this circuit and distance. May need a bit of luck negotiating a very wide starting position but is open to natural improvement. MOTHER WAS A MUDDA (4) was beaten as a hot favourite on debut but there was still merit in the effort for third at Temora. Should be better for the experience so is worth another chance. HEAVENS GOTTA WAIT (3) faces the starter for the first time. By Million Dollar Cam and hails from the Day stable. Has the benefit of a good draw and has shown enough at the trials to be competitive. ITS A FOND MEMORY (5) is a likely improver after debuting with a good third behind DOVE LAKE last time out at this venue.

Last start 5th (Fr1) over 1740m at this track beaten 18 m by Magic Captain (2:05.80) in MAIDEN on April 4 at $34. Two runs back was driven from back in the field when 4th (Fr4) over 1760m at Junee was 8th-14.6m 2WWC at the bell, beaten 14 m by Valdezz (2:14.50) in MAIDEN on March 25 at $7.50.
