Wagga Race 5 - Nutrien Equine Standardbred Pace
SECRET LINE (1) drew wide so did well to finish only 2.5 metres from the winner here last time. He is better served by the ace draw and was brave in winning after working here four back. Big chance. Tricky draw for UNCLE CRAIGO (10) but he must be considered after placing in four of his last five starts, missing by just over a metre last time. ALWAYSATTHEBEACH (9) draws for a trail so could be dangerous. This looks a more suitable assignment for FOLLOW THE MONEY (4) so look for a better result.

Recent form below what he is capable of. Last start was driven from back in the field when 5th (Fr7) over 1740m at this track, at the bell was 9th-11.8 beaten 2.5 m by Mirador Lass (2:05.10) on August 21 at $34. The start before was well back in the run when 9th (Fr5) over 1740m at this track, at the bell was 10th-14.6 beaten 11 m by Secrets Kept (2:05.80) on August 14 at $26. Should get his chance from this draw.

Failed to impress last start; surrendered the lead and finished 9th (Fr4) over 1730m after showing early pace at Bathurst beaten 30 m by Ultimate Equus (2:06.10) in 4yo+ on August 28 at $23. Showed ability the race before when he won by 2.5 m after showing early speed, (Fr1) at Parkes (2:04.90) beating Riverina Flash in on August 14 at $9 at the bell was leading 0.2. Can be about the money.

Two back was well beaten into third behind Kings Gallery at Kilmore over 1690m on August 20 at $101. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2 m finishing second behind Final Bow at Shepparton over 1690m on August 25 at $5. May be worth including.
