Hatrick Straight Race 4

JOLT COFFEE HOUSE C4/5 313M PBD

Prize Money: $5,636

OPAWA SIMPSON (4) boasts a strong record this journey with nine wins and 11 minors from 26 tries. Was out of placings last time (21.71) at Manawatu in a Class 4/5, finishing fourth and beaten 6 lengths. Has been racing against stronger fields of late. Has the ability and looks a key chance here. GRASSCUTTER MOE (8) returned a better run last time, finishing in the money (17.50) at this track behind Big Time Mariah in a Class 4. Expecting another good run. PUMBAA AND TIMON (3) finds it hard to break through. Finished in the minors last time when third (39.04) at Manawatu making it back to back placings. Not the quickest to jump but does hit the line strongly. Expected to feature again. CHILD PRODIGY (7) racing over this course and distance brings the best out in her.
