Manawatu Race 2 - John Gommans Stables Mobile Pace

ENYA FRANCO (5) turned in a much better run at her latest appearance, finishing second over 2000m at Oamaru Raceway. Meets a comparable field and she can find the winners' circle. JAHI (4) was out of the money two runs back at this track then improved sharply last start to score by half a metre over 2000m at the same circuit. Meets a similar lineup so he can certainly make it two on the bounce. HA'PENNY (6) disappointed last time out over 1980m at Addington. Can bounce back with a return to this deck. CHEER ME ON (1) is better than her last-start ninth over 2000m at Hawera and can figure in the finish with the aid of a very nice draw.

Last start 8th (Fr6) over 2000m at this track, beaten 25 m by Executive Banner (2:27.30) on February 13 at $14.80. At the start before game effort when 3rd (Fr1) over 2000m at this track, beaten 10 m by Avenger (2:32.70) on February 11 at $4.80. Capable of more than he has shown recently. Rates highly and can do much better.

Two back was well beaten into fifth behind Avenger at this track over 2000m on February 11 at $15. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind Executive Banner at this track over 2000m on February 13 at $29.60. Heading the right way and is a leading player.

Didn't do much last start, 7th (U1) over 2000m at this track, beaten 18 m by Executive Banner (2:27.30) on February 13 at $31.10. Before that 7th (FrU1) over 2000m at this track beaten 21 m by Avenger (2:32.70) on February 11 at $51.80. This looks a far sterner task.
