Hatrick Race 4

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SARAH CALKIN C1 520M

Prize Money: $5,182

COWBOY'S RODEO (2) was out of the placings last time when sixth at Manawatu (26.76) but scored three back at Wanganui Straight (17.26). Better than the latest effort and deserves another chance. NOT ENOUGH TIME (3) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing sixth (26.59) in a SPECA at Manawatu. Won at her only start from this draw. One of the main contenders. BAD PASSENGER (5) is worth forgiving last start after finishing fourth (26.59) in a Class 0 at Manawatu over 457m. Seems to be a reliable beginner and is a leading chance. DIME A DOZEN (6) still learning but does have raw ability and is worth consideration.

Could only manage fourth last time but the start prior hit the frame at double figure odds when third (31.04) over 520m at this track. With a clean start should be thereabouts.
