Wagga Race 7 - Walsh & Blair Pace
JETTER SON (6) made it two wins from two runs this prep last start when he got the cash by 3.5 metres over 1690m at Shepparton. It doesn't get any easier but on his best form he is capable of another big performance. FASTING (7) finished fourth last start at Listed level in a race won by Sweet On Lexy over 1609m at Menangle, beaten 17 metres. Quality performer who is nicely placed to return in style. ROCKAWAY BEACH (2) is in the mix following a fourth at his most recent appearance over 1690m at Shepparton. BRAEBEACH (9) must be respected after scoring last start by 1.2 metres at Albury over 2170m.
