Manukau Race 6

PUMP & ENGINEERING SERVICES STAKES PBD

Prize Money: $4,000

PORTLAND MAGNUM (7) is a capable type and proved too strong last time to win by 4.5 lengths at this track in a handy 31.17 beating Opawa Raisin. Ran one of the fastest times on the program in his latest win. Handled the middle distance with merit last start. Can measure up again. OPAWA TOBY (4) has been in the money at his last two runs, most recently when second (31.69) in a Class 2/3 over 527m at this track. Can improve sharply here. ALPINE JEWEL (8) latest effort finished 4th on November 27 over 375m at Cambridge Raceway behind Diamond Frankie beaten 11 lengths (22.08) in a Class 2. Suited here and expected to run well. OPAWA SELENA (3) has ability and can feature with the right run after missing a cheque here most recently.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage sixth last time out over 318m at this track. Hard to envisage a win.
