Wagga Race 2

Ladbrokes Punter Assist Masters

Stake: $2,541

TALAKAI (5) goes very well this course and distance starting 24 times for nine wins and four minors. Placed last time (19.65) at Temora in a Mix 2/3, finishing second and beaten 2.25 lengths. Makes strong appeal on best. NEXT OF KIN (1) has been a little hard to follow, finishing out of the placings latest but was in winning form two back scoring in a Mix 2/3 at this track. Key player on best and worth another try. INFRARED RAYS (7) latest effort finished 4th over 320m at this track beaten 6 lengths (18.57) behind Kostecki in a Grade 4/5 on December 20. Among the main chances. TRICKY VISION (8) hit the frame here last time and looks a chance again.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (18.57) in a Grade 4/5, finishing a 6 length fourth. Goes very well from the draw boasting two victories and five places from 12 starts. Looks a key chance on best form.

Comments

Form has been strong, including a victory two starts back. Last time out finished 3rd in a Grade 4/5 on December 13 over 320m at this track behind Who's Watching beaten 4.5 lengths (18.43). Capable of playing a big role.
