Nowra Race 5 - Ladbrokes Pinebowl Blitz Heat 1 H
WHERE'S FERNANDO (7) shapes nicely here coming off a blistering 19.01 win at Bulli over 340m. Should be in this for a long way. ZIPPING VIOLET (3) clocked a dazzling 20.37 and a PB time this course in distance when claiming a NG last time. Rates a leading chance if runs up to latest. SAINT MIKEY (2) is a capable type and proved too strong last time to win by 3.5 lengths at this track in a handy 20.77 beating FIREFLY GAL. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card in scoring last start. Leading player again. LIZZIE LONG LEGS (1) can sneak into the finish with the right run.

Found the going tougher last start when second over 365m at this track. That followed a win two back in 20.82 beating Saint Mikey over 365m at this track. Others favoured this time.

Should get a clear run from the wide draw. Wasn't impressive last start but does have a great record at this track and distance, has a strong record from box 8, including two wins. Winning hope with the right run.
