Wagga (G) Race 7

Interior Constructions 1-4 Win

Stake: $3,359

STAPLETON (4) broke from the inside draw and filled a minor placing last start, beaten only 2 lengths (26.31) behind Gold Revolver at Temora. One of the leading chances. ASTON PAYCHECK (8) has a fair record and proved too strong last time to win by half a length at this track in a handy 31.20 beating Helm. Solid beginner and with a good start should have clear running out wide. Expected to measure up again. LET'S GO WHAM (6) could manage only third at this track last time but impressed when clocking a quick 23.01 over 400m at this track the start prior. Has the ability and can find winning form again. FOR REAL FAITH (2) is worth consideration.

Found the going tougher last start when second over 457m at Temora. That followed a win two back in 23.41 beating Little Chew Chew over 400m at this track. Likely to struggle this time.

Good win last start as odds-on favourite by half a length over 525m at this track in a handy 31.20, beating Helm. Has hit winning form and can measure up again.
