Manawatu Race 8

TAB MEGA MULTI BUSTER PBD

Prize Money: $3,182

I'VE GOT SWAGGER (4) has a strong record here with three wins and two placings from eight starts. Placed last time (17.57) at Wanganui Straight in a Class 2/3, finishing third and beaten 0.6 lengths. Looks the one to beat with even luck. I'M FRAGILE (8) was out of placings last time (17.75) at Wanganui Straight in a Class 3, finishing sixth and beaten 8 lengths. Has two wins already from this draw. With even luck and a clean start should be thereabouts. BIG TIME LONDON (3) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing seventh (21.90) in a Class 4 at this track. Form here at the trip sound including four wins. Does drop down in class and can bounce back. MAPLE LEAF (2) enjoys racing on this track and can find the frame without surprising.

Did a good job two starts back at this track to win by 0.9 lengths in 21.74, beating Forever A Fairy. Last start finished last over 313m at Wanganui Straight beaten 9 lengths (17.82) behind Child Prodigy in a Class 3 on April 21. Capable of much better. Solid claims this line-up.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (21.90) in a Class 4, finishing a 6 length seventh. Has three successes and six minors from 17 starts from box 3. Looks a key chance.

Latest effort finished 3rd on April 21 over 313m at Wanganui Straight behind Big Time Nico beaten 0.6 lengths (17.57) in a Class 2/3. Has run blistering time here with a 21.19 PB at the distance. Hard to beat.

Missed the frame latest (17.58) when fourth over 313m at Wanganui Straight in a Class 2/3. Has three successes and four minors from 12 starts from box 5. Makes appeal on best.

Hasn't threatened at his last couple but he does have a good record at the track and trip, including two wins. Last couple have been below par. Has ability and should feature.
