RACE 5

THREE CHORD RIFF (9) showed gate speed to lead last start and set a fairly strong tempo for the grade when run down late by Courageous Leo. She should get a good run off the speed this time and should be hard to hold out late. 

BLUE BLOODZ (7) secured a good run last start and just couldn’t quite get into the clear at the right time to make his challenge. He seems better when saved up for one run at this stage of his career and may be suited by the trailing draw. 

MAN OF ACTION (5) has plenty of early speed and should be able to find a prominent position from the wide draw. He raced without luck last start when held up in a race taken out by Mini Mine Yet. 

NATTY PAGGER (1) is a trotter taking on the pacers in this race which seemingly hasn’t been a winning formula in recent months. He does have gate speed and should be able to hold a prominent position in the early stages of the race. 

SELECTIONS: THREE CHORD RIFF (9), BLUE BLOODZ (7), MAN OF ACTION (5), NATTY PAGGER (1)

SUGGESTED BET: THREE CHORD RIFF (9) to win.
