Manukau Race 9 - ALL THE NEWS AT TRACKSIDE.CO.NZ SPRINT PBD

HANZO RIVER (3) was out of placings last time (21.95) at Cambridge Raceway in a Class 5, finishing fifth and beaten 10 lengths. Has already won three times from this draw. Faces a significant drop in class today and should be very hard to beat. PORTLAND FONZIE (5) has a strong winning strike-rate over this track and trip with three wins and a placing from six tries. Missed the frame latest (21.74) when fourth over 375m at Cambridge Raceway in a Class 3/4. Can feature in the finish. PORTLAND MAGIC (7) showed little early speed at his last couple, the latest finishing fifth (19.07) in a Class 4 at this track. Form here sound including two wins. Key player if finds best. HUNTER LOU (2) scored last time and appeals as a top-three prospect. Odds will be lucrative.
