Manawatu Raceway Race 8

POWER FARMING MOBILE PACE

Stake: $11,000

HA'PENNY (4) had to call on all reserves to salute at the most recent appearance over 2000m at this track, getting home by just 2 metres. Meets a similar lineup, so she is capable of getting the job done again. LINCOLN LA MOOSE (6) scored a decisive win last time out over 2000m at this track, getting home by 12 metres in an impressive display. His last-start form is good enough to win a race of this calibre. STICKIFINGERS (2) is making her track debut and didn't do a bad job when fifth over 1700m at Ashburton Raceway last time out. Each way. VINCENT REACTRESS (7) is in the mix if she can recapture the form from two starts back that saw her score over 1980m at Addington. Include in all combinations.
