Manawatu Race 6

TAB RACING MEGA MULTI BUSTER

Prize Money: $3,909

DONNA ANNE BILLY (8) proved too good on debut over 457m at this track to score by 0.7 lengths (26.32). Boxed wide but has the pace to be prominent. Can measure up again. GRASSCUTTER MOE (7) continues to race well but is struggling to break through, placing at her last four runs. Last time finished 2nd on August 15 over 457m at this track behind DONNA ANNE BILLY beaten 0.7 lengths (26.37) in a Class 0. Expecting another good run. STORMY END (5) was safely held last time out, finishing seventh at this track over 457m behind DONNA ANNE BILLY (26.92) in a Class 0. One of the main contenders. MAPLE LEAF (4) gets a chance to redeem an unplaced effort here last start.

Good effort last time when third (26.50) over 457m at this track. Drawn close to the inside. Only a minor place chance today.

Last start finished sixth over 457m at this track, beaten 7 lengths (26.81) behind Donna Anne Billy in a Class 0 on August 15. Doesn't profile as a likely winner.

Has raced six times and is overdue for a win, the latest offering a second (26.37) over 457m at this track. Gave a big sight after racing on the speed much of the way. Racing well and deserves a win.

Settled midfield on debut but made ground. Won by 0.7 lengths at this track (26.32) beating Grasscutter Moe in a Class 0 on August 15. Can only be further improved and expected to measure up again.
