Manawatu Race 2 - RED SNAPPER SEAFOODS, CHRISTCHURCH

MORE MAGIC (7) stretches out further in journey and is having his first try at the trip. Goes well from this draw despite never having won. Looks suited and should go close. SO STRICT (5) broke a string of placings finishing in the money two on end before a last start fourth (38.75) at this track. Has a good record here including two wins. Cannot be left out. LITTLE DODO (2) has been hard to follow lately, running fourth (30.32) last time but prior to that ran very well when placed at this track. Well placed here and can atone this time. GOLDSTAR HOGAN (3) has a solid strike rate from this box. Has each-way claims.

Was out of the placings last time but the start prior finished in the minors when third (38.73) at big odds over 660m at this track. Aided by a low draw and capable of a better result.
