Nowra Race 2

South Nowra Premium Meats 0-2 Win

Prize Money: $1,350

RITA'S HAIRCUT (4) had the drop on the lead early on but could only manage third, beaten 0.8 lengths (30.49) at this track in a Mix over 520m. Top prospect. PAINT THE RUST (6) broke a string of placings finishing in the money two on end before a last start fifth (30.63) at this track. Has ability and a bold showing is expected. REGIS KRYSTAL (2) was below best last time when fifth but three back was a Grade 5 winner in quick time at Goulburn. Expecting significant improvement. BOY BANDIT (7) is a last start winner who can measure up again.

Missed the frame last time but was in the minors two on end prior to that, the most recent when second (37.32) over 630m at this track. Nicely drawn on the inside but needs to find best form to feature.

Nearing another win after claiming her maiden success on July 22 at this track over 365m. Last start was third over 520m in 30.49, behind Zipping Kesha. Looks well placed and should prove hard to beat.
