Manawatu Race 7

THE PAVEMASTER'S LTD PBD

Prize Money: $3,182

MILLIE'S CHOICE (8) doesn't win out of turn. Finished in the minors latest when third (17.42) at Wanganui Straight and may be close to breaking through. Has a good record here including four wins. Top chance in this line up. JILLIBY FINALE (6) boasts a consistent overall record including five wins from 18 starts, but missed the frame latest when seventh (18.15) over 305m at Wanganui. Best form too dangerous to ignore. Has been racing against stronger fields and have to include today. FOREVER A FAIRY (7) scored by 1.3 lengths last time (17.43) in a Class 2 over 313m at Wanganui Straight. Has already won four times from this draw. Looks a key chance on best figures. BACARDI NIGHT (5) difficult draw to contend with but is another with top-three prospects.

Hit the frame at Wanganui Straight last time when a 1.5 lengths third but did record a good 17.42 over the 313m journey. Thereabouts of late and rates highly this line-up.
