Manawatu Race 1 - WELCOME TO MANAWATU RACEWAY PBD

JUST ALBIE (5) hasn't been far away here at the last two, finding the frame both times, most recently when second beaten 4.5 lengths (21.97). Deserves serious consideration. LET'S GO PIPPA (7) unfancied latest but hit the ground running and gave a sight, holding on for a minor placing (18.19) at Wanganui in a Class 0 over 305m. Form from her last run is proving to be solid. Can feature again. OUR DARCY (6) was checked in the run and safely held when fifth (18.86) in a Class 0 over 305m at Wanganui. Better than latest and worth another try. CLIFF TOP MAGGIE (3) is going well, finishing in the placings twice in a row. Not beaten far last time when a half a length third (18.21) in a Class 0 at Wanganui.

Finished third last start (22.01) at big odds over 375m at this track. Awkward draw to overcome. Better last time but not convinced this is his race.

Has raced three times and is overdue for a win, the latest offering a second (21.97) over 375m at this track. Has hit the frame at the last two starts. Hard to beat with even luck.

Turned in a fair debut run over 457m at this track where he settled off the pace and battled on to finish fifth (26.96) and beaten 8 lengths. Should be further improved. Cannot enthuse on this occasion.
