Manawatu Race 1 - Michael Hay Stables Mobile Pace
ANN SOPHIE (3) drew wide last start and was easily accounted for, beaten 20 metres into tenth at Motukarara over 2000m. She is nicely drawn for her track debut and is the one to beat. ONYX SHARD (2) finished ninth last start over 2200m at Cambridge Raceway, beaten 25 metres, after a good second at Cambridge Raceway the run prior. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Has the talent to take this out. EDDIE OSEI (7) is in the mix following a respectable third at his most recent appearance over 2000m at this track. CALL SECURITY (1) can take a sit behind the top pick early on and is worth some thought after his last-start fourth over 2000m at this track on February 13.
