Manukau Race 11

Sportsbowl Function Centre Sprint Pbd

Stake: $3,100

BIG TIME THRILL (1) boasts a consistent overall record including 11 wins from 34 starts but missed the frame latest when fourth (21.53) over 375m at Manawatu. Rarely misses off this draw. Drawn the fence and expected to go close. MISS ROWDY (3) is a capable type and proved too strong last time to win by 0.6 lengths at this track in a handy 18.63 beating Cappiello. Some good form is emerging from her last run. Can make it two on the bounce. DARK SMOKE (7) has missed the placings at her last couple but was in the money three back when second (18.56) at this track in a Class 4. Expecting sharp improvement tin his line-up. OPAWA ELLIOT (5) is always hard to beat when he races here at this trip. Include in all combinations.

Found some support last start but struggled and finished 4th on December 17 over 375m at Manawatu behind Midnight Brockie beaten 5 lengths (21.53) in a Class 4. Placed two back at Wanganui. Unbeaten in two starts from this draw. Key runner.

Was prominent from the outset and held on well to win at this track over 318m in 18.63 last start, beating Cappiello. Has hit winning form and can measure up again.

Did a good job two starts back at this track to win by 0.9 lengths in 18.68, beating Sweet. Last start finished last over 318m at this track beaten 12 lengths (19.06) behind Just One Grin in a Class 3/4 on December 15. Has claims on best form.

Failed to finish the race over 318m at this track last start. Prior to that was beaten 7 lengths over 318m at this track in a Class 4. Strong form emerging from the last run. Looks one of the chances.

Finds himself facing runners with stronger credentials. Didn't finish last start. Two back second over 318m at this track. Not likely to feature on this occasion.
