Wagga Race 6

Daniel Woods Funeral Care Pace

Stake: $10,575

EXCLUSIVE HUSTLER (9) made good progress to lead and win by 2.7m when second-up at this circuit last week. Up in distance but has won third-up before so should be further improved. Draws for a trail and is a big chance to deliver again. NUGGET ROGERS (4) drew wider and worked when a strong winner here two back then led and fought well to go under narrowly last week. In form and has strong claims. TREACHEROUS BELLE (5) found the front from this barrier when scoring two back at Bathurst before breaking but recovering to go under by only 3.3m last start. Can feature with manners. STAY FOOLISH (2) led from this barrier and stuck on for second last week. Can be competitive again.
