Wagga Race 2

Wagga Gold Cup Carnival May 1 & 2 Mtc Cup (Bm74)

Prize Money: $27,000

HELLUVA SOIREE (5) didn't have much luck in the Canberra Cup preview last start when chopped out at a crucial stage but showed great ticker to pick back up and finish fourth. Has come along nicely this campaign under her new trainer Luke Pepper who is in red-hot form. Gets in low at the weights with the 2kg claimer reuniting and is a mare in form that will prove tough to stop. ASSOCIATE (1) is forever running on and while he hasn't won for a long time, he is a capable type on his day. Didn't run the trip last time when seeing it for the first time but willing to forgive. NOTES (6) comes into consideration after some key scratchings. Yet to make an impact over this trip but is worth keeping safe. IT IS TO BE (7) next.

Useful gelding. Last start second last of 7 at Wangaratta Hcp on March 1 over 2000m, 5 len behind Harmonious Senora with 55kg at $9. Before that 2nd of 13 at Randwick Highway-C3 on February 15 over 1800m, slow going nose behind Tapa Kick carrying 59.5kg at $17. Capable of sharp improvement.

Useful type. Most recently 4th of 10 at Canberra Canb Cup Prev88 on February 21 over 2000m, on a slow track; 3 len behind Scarli Japali with 55kg at $31. Before that came from midfield and won by a neck at Sapphire Coast Cup Bm66 February 2 over 2200m defeating Burgundy Girl carrying 55kg at $18. Great chance to atone.

Last start second last of 8 at Goulburn Cl1-Sw on February 28 over 2145m, 10 len behind Fernao carrying 59kg at $19. The race before that ran last in a small field at Canberra Cl1-Sw on February 21 over 1600m, slow going 7 len behind Sunshine Law with 59kg at $26. Form only moderate and a win doesn't look likely.

The run before that ran last of 11 at this track Bm58 on February 17 over 1600m, 6 len behind Magicholler with 55kg at $71. Not keen at all.
