Invercargill Race 2

Added Energy Stakes

Stake: $3,900

OPAWA KEITH (7) proved too good on debut over 457m at this track to score by 1.5 lengths (26.21). Boxed wide but has the pace to be prominent. Can measure up again. OPAWA STAYER (1) has mixed form recently, finishing sixth (26.57) in a Class 0 at this track latest but did run well two back when in the frame. Can feature with the right run. RUNAWAY ME (5) has a solid record despite not breaking through for a win in 11 starts. Missed the frame when fourth (26.82) at this track latest but was in the placings the start before. Still to record a win from this draw but has never missed the frame in two starts. Better than his last start and can bounce back.

Was out of the placings last time but the start prior finished in the minors when second (26.64) over 457m at this track. Nicely drawn on the inside and capable of a better result.

Last start finished sixth in a Class 0 on June 27 over 457m at this track behind Ripslinger Ruby, beaten 18 lengths (27.50). Cannot enthuse on this occasion.

Eye-catching performance on debut, showing plenty of speed to score by 1.5 lengths in a Class 0 last start at this track, clocking a solid 26.21 over the 457m trip. Can measure up again if runs up to that effort.

Hasn't shown any early speed lately and drifts back in his races. Last start finished sixth over 457m at Manawatu, beaten 11 lengths. Tempted to look elsewhere.
