Manawatu Race 5 - MOORE LAW PALMERSTON NORTH
MAILMAN'S COMING (3) was in the placings last time but shapes well for this on his sharp win the start prior, getting around Wanganui over 520m in 30.11. Can measure up on top win two back. MORE AIRFLOW (7) had a tricky draw last time and although midfield in fourth wasn't far away finishing one length from the winner (17.64). Form here at the trip sound including two wins. Expected to run well. GROOT'S GALAXY (6) held his own to the line last start and filled a minor placing, beaten only a head (17.54) behind Big Time Nico at Wanganui Straight. Faces a slightly easier field and expected to be in this for a long way. CLOUD BOOMING (5) can sneak into the finish with the right run. Odds will be appealing.

Produced a good run, hitting the frame last run (17.49) at Wanganui Straight in a Class 1. Has first look at box 3 this time. Looks a strong winning hope.

Found the going tougher last start when third over 457m at this track. That followed a win two back in 26.18 beating Kookaburra Bob over 457m at Cambridge Raceway. Others make more appeal.

Missed the frame latest (17.79) when fifth over 313m at Wanganui Straight in a Class 2. Goes very well from the draw boasting two places from three starts. Looks one of the chances.

Form has been solid with minor placings at his last three starts. Last time out finished 2nd in a Class 2/3 on April 21 over 313m at Wanganui Straight behind Big Time Nico beaten a head (17.54). Looks a solid contender.

Found some support last start but struggled and finished 4th over 313m at Wanganui Straight beaten one length (17.64) behind Big Time Mariah in a Class 2 on April 21. Placed two back at Wanganui. Thereabouts of late and rates highly this line-up. Expected to be in the finish.
