Whanganui Race 7

GREYHOUNDS MAKE GREAT PETS C4 520M

Stake: $5,500

BIG TIME SUPER (7) jumped from out wide and was game in defeat last start when a 0.6 lengths third (26.37) behind Big Time Theo at Manawatu. Can find winning form with a similar run. NEED A FAVOUR (8) goes very well this course and distance starting eight times for three wins and two minors. Missed the frame latest (26.41) when fourth over 457m at Manawatu in a Class 4. Suited here and expected to run well. HEY DRIVER (3) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing seventh (26.60) in a Class 4 at Manawatu. Solid record at the distance winning five races. Has a strong record out of this box with two wins and a minor placing from five starts. Shapes as one to consider. BIG TIME FAVOUR (5) does get a squeeze box but will have admirers again after a narrow placing last time out.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage sixth last time out over 457m at Manawatu. Others read better.

Goes well at this track and trip. At the last outing finished 7th in a Class 4 on August 5 over 457m at Manawatu behind Big Time Theo beaten 4 lengths (26.60). Racing well and has to be included.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage fifth last time out over 313m at Wanganui Straight. Shouldn't trouble the top few hopes.

Placed last time (26.34) at Manawatu in a Class 4, finishing second and beaten a head. Still a maiden from this draw but has never missed the frame from two starts. Key runner based on recent form.

Has been consistent, placing at her last 4 starts. Last start finished 3rd on August 5 over 457m at Manawatu behind Big Time Theo beaten 0.6 lengths (26.37) in a Class 4. Thereabouts of late and rates highly this line-up. Can continue the solid form.
