Riverton Race 8 - Carriers Arms Hotel Riverton Cup Handicap Pace

NUTCRACKER (7) scored at Wingatui three runs ago. Returned to something like that form last time out when second over 2700m at Ascot Park Raceway, beaten 5.5 metres. Has the class to find the winners' list. DENY EVERYTHING (8) finished runner-up last start, beaten a neck, in a nice return to form at Cromwell over 2600m. Leading hope in a similar race. TABASCO (2) is the next elect off a last-start win by 3.5 metres at Ascot Park Raceway over 2200m. INSARCHATWIST (9) must be respected after scoring last start by half a metre at Cromwell over 1800m.

Well beaten last start by Tabasco, who he meets again; when 21 metres seventh at Ascot Park Raceway over 2200m in a race on January 16. Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.
