Cromwell Race 5 - Oakleys Plumbing Supplies Ltd Handicap Trot
EUROKASH (5) finished third at Oamaru two runs ago before a comparable effort at his latest appearance over 1980m at Addington, beaten 15 metres. Perfectly placed and is sure to be there at the finish. MAJESTIC LOVE (2) is worth another chance after a last-start seventh over 2700m at Ascot Park Raceway five weeks ago. JIMMY CARTER (6) is the best of the rest after finishing fourth over 2750m at Gore last time out. IMPERIAL MAN (1) after making a slow beginning scored a strong win over 1800m at Gore on the grass last start. Meets a tougher line-up here but can place.
