Whanganui Race 9

PRESIDENTS STAKES C5 520M

Stake: $6,300

BLAZIN' MASTER (5) boasts a strong record this journey here with 15 wins and 16 minors from 41 tries. Recorded a neck win (30.50) in a Class 4 last time at this track. Looks suited here and rates on top. BIG TIME ASHTON (2) is a well performed dog who recorded his 9th career win last time out at Manawatu (26.13). Is yet to taste defeat in three starts from this draw. Expected to measure up again. FEAR TO TREAD (8) has shown good improvement at her last two starts, most recently finishing 3rd at this track over 520m. Has never missed the frame from three starts from this draw, including a win. Leading player again. ROCK IT RAPPER (4) won in smart time most recently. Right in the mix.

Came from wide draw and finished 4th in a Class 5 on May 6 over 457m at Manawatu behind Big Time Ashton beaten 5 lengths (26.47). Will not find this easy. Not keen.

In the money last time at this track (30.61) in a Class 5, finishing a 6 length third. Super consistent from the draw with a win and two places from three starts. Has ability and can sneak into the finish.
