Manawatu Race 4

ALL THE NEWS AT TRACKSIDE PBD

Prize Money: $4,273

HENDRIX RULER (5) ran the fastest on the card last time scoring by 1.5 lengths (21.13) at this track. Has the squeeze box to contend with but is stronger enough to muscle his way early. Form reads well for this. JEDDY SPAGHETTI (8) is progressing well with another good run last time, placing (17.15) at Wanganui Straight. Strike rate this distance strong having won three of six tries. Is yet to miss the placings from this draw, including four wins, from 15 starts. Maintains a strong gallop to the line and is ready to find winning form. THAT'S THAT (7) is a sprinter who excels over the short dashes. Finished fifth latest over 313m at Wanganui Straight (17.56) in a Class 5 H. Has been disappointing since coming north but is much better than what form reads on paper. Has ability and a bold showing is expected. HAWKES BAY HALF (4) generally performs well from this box. Ignore last start run up the straight track in a very strong field and go on prior form.

Won two starts back after racing on the pace at Wanganui over 305m in 17.42. Couldn't repeat the feat last time out when eighth over 313m at Wanganui Straight at Class 5 level. Others hold stronger claims.

Missed the frame latest (17.35) when seventh over 313m at Wanganui Straight in a Class 5 FIN. Strong record off the draw with two wins and two minors from five starts. Looks one of the chances.

Comments

Strong performance after racing just off the speed to win by 1.5 lengths at this track over 375m (21.13) beating Jeddy Spaghetti in Class 5 on March 10. Has run very fast time at this course and distance. Makes strong appeal.

Has finished last in his last couple of starts, most recently at Wanganui over 305m. Prefer in something easier.
