Manukau Race 11

Trackside Sprint Pbd

Stake: $3,100

LION'S DEN (2) was strongly fancied on the back of a win two starts back but finished second last time (18.52) at this track. Yet to miss the placings in five runs from this box, including three wins. PORTLAND JAKE (8) was below best at his last start when 6th at this track following a second-place finish (18.47) there two back. Has a good record here at this journey. Can do much better this time. WIDE BOY (4) turned in a moderate run last time when fifth at Cambridge Raceway over 375m behind Rustic Kiwi (21.71) in a Class 4. Comes through a solid form race last start. Key runner who gets his chance to atone. DOUBLE PLAY (7) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing eighth (21.93) in a Class 3/4 at Manawatu. Solid record at the distance winning two races. Solid formlines coming through her last run. Can bounce back.

Hit the frame last time at this track but the start prior was an easy winner after leading throughout, scoring by 6 lengths in a Class 2/3 at Cambridge Raceway. Bold showing expected on best.

Needs to do more than recent efforts, the latest a eighth over 318m at this track. Likely to struggle this time.

Didn't make the placings last time at Cambridge Raceway (21.71) in a Class 4, finishing a 8 length fifth. Goes very well from the draw boasting two victories and four places from 11 starts. Has ability and should feature.

Did a good job two starts back at this track to win by 2.25 lengths in 18.55, beating Lion's Den. Last start finished last over 318m at this track beaten 7 lengths (19.04) behind Love It in a Class 4/5 on June 30. Tempted to look elsewhere.
