Wentworth Park Race 9

Ladbrokes Punter Assist

Prize Money: $8,900

PELOPONNESE (8) has a strong overall record having six wins and eight places from 21 starts including a last start success (29.71) over 520m at this track. Solid record at the distance winning two races. On top here on best form and expected to feature. NICKO QUEEN (1) has a moderate overall strike-rate. Finished second (30.03) at Dapto latest and might be close to finding winning form again. Expected to be in this for a long way. BLAZIN' FIRE (4) has a strong record this trip with six wins and seven placings from 18 starts. Hit the frame latest (29.84) when third at Gosford in a Grade 4/5. Makes strong appeal on best. WHO KNOWS GUS (7) is worth consideration after filling a hole last start.

Backs up after winning by 1.3 lengths at Maitland (22.86) beating Noon Day Sun in a Grade 5 on December 23 five days ago. This is much harder assignment and she needs to find another gear.

Has finished in the placings at last two, the latest when third (29.84) over 515m at Gosford. Tricky draw to overcome. Cannot be ruled out.
