Manukau Race 2

MPS FENCING R/O SPRINT PBD

Prize Money: $2,909

TOBACCO ROAD (7) turned in a plain run last time when fifth at this track over 527m behind Opawa Wine (31.99) in a Class 1/2. Much better suited to the sprint trip today. Has claims if he runs up to expectations. DASHING BLAZER (2) turned spotting a big start finishing fifth (19.45) last time in a Class 1 at this track. Strong form has emerged from her last run. Meets a weaker field and must be included in calculations. MISTER PRESSIVE (6) turned in a moderate effort last time when fifth at this track over 318m behind Sunrise Michelle (19.63) in a Class 1 H. Worth another chance. NOT QUITE WHITE (8) on occasions can jump and run early. Should feature with the right run.

At the last outing finished last on March 15 over 318m at this track behind Au Fait beaten 8 lengths (19.61) in a Class 1. On best form is more than capable. Great chance to atone.
