Manawatu Race 7 - Christmas Function Book Now Dec 10 & 12 Mbl Pace

SANTANNA MACH (4) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling when third here on Tuesday, making it back-to-back placings. Gets the same draw and he rates as a strong winning hope. BAILEYS PITCH (3) came from much wider on Tuesday and did well to finish runner-up here three back. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Major player. MORERE (2) placed here fresh before coming from a wider barrier on Tuesday. Building in fitness and draws to advantage so can make an impact. THE ELITE ATHLETE (1) is working up to a win having finished runner-up from this same draw two days ago.

Two back was well beaten into fourth behind Jazzy Styx at this track over 2000m in a 3yo+ on November 11 at $22.50. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4 m finishing second behind Whitebait Marg at this track over 2000m in a 3yo+ on November 19 at $13. The inside draw is a big plus so expected to go well again.

Recent efforts haven't been up to his best. Backing up quickly after 6th (Fr7) over 2000m at this track, beaten 17 m by Whitebait Marg (2:33.70) in 3yo+ on November 19 at $8.50. The run previous 7th (Fr1) over 2000m at this track beaten 9 m by Warloch (2:28.50) on November 11 at $3.60. Closer draw this time so worth another chance.
