Manukau Race 7

SPADEWORTHY STAKES PBD

Prize Money: $5,364

OPAWA RANDY (3) trailed the lead and fought on well to be beaten 6 lengths into third (38.85) at Cambridge Raceway in a Class 1 over 650m. Drops back to a middle distance and should be hitting the line powerfully. Expected to feature in the finish again. OPAWA WINE (4) was safely held in tougher company last start after drifting back at this track, but prior to that won comfortably by 5 lengths at this track (31.17) beating Opawa Freya in a Class 1/2 on April 19. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and nine minor placings to her credit. Key runner who gets her chance to atone. OPAWA RAISIN (6) was strongly supported last start but missed the frame when sixth (22.27), beaten 8 lengths. Is a reliable beginner who should race on the speed.

Ran a better race when third behind Texas Snakebite at Cambridge Raceway last start over 650m (38.85). Racing well enough to fully test this line-up.

Comments

Missed the frame latest (31.62) when sixth over 527m at this track in a Class 3. Has one success and nine minors from 19 starts from box 4. Better than that and worth following up.

Could only manage sixth last time but the start prior hit the frame at double figure odds when second (31.22) over 527m at this track. Has ability and looks a winning hope.

Good effort last time when third (26.47) over 457m at Cambridge Raceway. Jumps from a wide draw. Not one of the leading chances on this occasion.
