Manukau Race 12

CUTIE'S SISTER SPRINT PBD

Prize Money: $3,364

AU FAIT (6) boasts a strong record this journey here with two wins and three minors from six tries. Below best last time at Cambridge Raceway (22.19) in a Class 1/2, finishing a 9 length fifth. With a clean break looks hard to beat. CAPPIELLO (5) made it two minor placings on the trot when beaten second (19.03) in a Class 2 at this track last time out. Gets a tricky draw but has enough early speed to avoid trouble. Well placed here and can feature again. TINY KIWI (3) was out of the placings last time when sixth at this track (19.73) but scored five back at this track (19.01). Bold showing expected. WAITERIMU GEM (8) has ability and can feature with the right run after missing a cheque here most recently. Wide draw is ideal.
