Wagga Race 5 - Nsw Standardbred Owners Association First Past The Post Pace
SINBAD SASSY (9) came from a wide barrier for a resuming second at this venue before he was beaten only 3 metres at Menangle last time. No harm in drawing here with the sprint lane to rely upon and has won third-up before so should be ready to peak. GINGER ELLA (1) was down the track last start but was going well prior, filling a minor placing at the previous appearance here to follow a Shepparton win. Should enjoy the favours from this advantageous draw. ACHY BREAKY ARK (3) was beaten less than 6m from the back row last week. Much better drawn and he strikes at 50 per cent at this circuit and distance. HALF PRICE BRIDE (5) has produced two decent efforts at Bendigo off a spell. Has recorded a win and a placing in two attempts here and could be ready to peak third-up.

Capable of better than we have seen lately. Last start 9th (Sr2) over 1740m at this track was 6th-9.8 at the bell, beaten 6 m by Norms Lady (2:03.60) on July 10 at $34. The run prior was well back in the run when 6th (Fr5) over 2270m at this track was 7th-11.6 at the bell, beaten 18 m by Jilliby Ryder (2:44.50) on July 3 at $10. Draws better so could be ready to find his best.

Failed to impress last start; was driven from back in the field when 5th (Fr8) over 1740m at this track was 10th-16.2 at the bell, beaten 4.5 m by Titiwha (2:05.30) on July 10 at $11. Showed ability the race before when she tracked on the speed and boxed on steadily; won by 2.5 m as favourite (Fr1) at this track (2:44.30) beating Arendelle in on June 5 at $2.80 at the bell was 3rd-3.8. Solid prospects.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 3 m fourth behind Bling The Kash at Menangle over 1609m last start. Before that was beaten 4.5 metres second at this track over 1740m in 4yo+ on June 26. Peaking now and has winning claims.
