Nowra Race 5

More From Tote With Ladbrokes

Prize Money: $2,515

NIGHT COUNTRY (1) finished in the minors last time but the start prior broke the clock when winning over 365m at this track, taking a Grade 5 in a slick 20.71. Rates a top chance if runs up to time two back. ANNIE'S RUPEE (8) flew the lids with a fast early split last time, hitting the frame with a 2.75 lengths third (20.83) over 365m at this track and making it two placings on end. The form from her last run stacks up well. Bold showing expected. WINSOME WANDA (7) turned in a fair 5th placed finish last time at this track over 365m (21.09). Has a good record here at this journey. Some good form is emerging from her last run. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. KUNG FU BAY (3) gets a chance to redeem an unplaced effort here last start.

Quickly away at this track two runs back then again settled forward and finished second at this track last start over 365m. Well-performed from this box. Key chance on best form.

Has finished fifth at this circuit at the last two appearances, most recently when beaten 6 lengths behind Hot Spark over 365m. Capable of taking this out.

Could only manage fourth last time but placed two on end prior to that, the latest at double-figure odds when third (20.73) over 365m at this track. Aided by a low draw but will need to find best.

Missed the frame latest (21.09) when fifth over 365m at this track in a Grade 5. Has two successes and two minors from six starts from box 7. Looks a leading chance.
