Wagga Race 8

Mark Hughes Foundation

Stake: -

ASTON CREOLE (7) had a tricky draw last time and although midfield in fourth wasn't far away finishing 2.75 lengths from the winner (18.72). Returns to a course where she has performed well. Goes well out of this box with a win and two minor placings. Has claims if she runs up to expectations. EIGHT OLD MATES (6) is a fast dog well performed over the sprint races. Was in the money last time (20.77) over 365m at Nowra in a Grade 5. Goes very well at the trip finding the frame in each of 12 starts. Has good early speed and can overcome the tricky draw. Expected to be in this for a long way. QUEEN OF SPADES (1) goes very well this trip starting 21 times for seven wins and five minors. In the money last time at this track (18.59) in a NG, finishing a 4.5 lengths third. With even luck and a clean start should be around the money. CAWBOURNE SASSY (8) was below best last time at this track (19.22) in a Grade 4/5, finishing a 10 length eighth. Has six wins already from this draw.

Fast starter. Latest effort finished 3rd in a NG on July 14 over 320m at this track behind Tiggerlong Gill beaten 4.5 lengths (18.59). Has a very good strike-rate out of box 1, scoring three times. Go close.

Was out of the placings last time but the start prior finished in the minors when third (23.85) at big odds over 400m at this track. Draws an inside box and is among the better hopes.

Good effort to win last start by a neck over 320m at this track in a handy (18.84), beating Romantic Secret. Will find this a bit tougher, would be better placed in something easier.

Has been in the minor money the last two runs, the latest at big odds finishing third (18.71) at this track. Squeeze draw to overcome. Solid top-three prospects.

Poor last start but ran a better race two back when fourth over 320m at this track. Prefer in something easier.

Flew the lids with a fast early split but had to contend with second when clocking 20.77 over 365m at Nowra. Has run blistering time here with a 18.19 PB at the distance. Hard to beat.

Missed the frame latest (18.72) when fourth over 320m at this track in a Grade 4/5. Has performed well off the draw with a win and two places from five starts. Leading player.
