Wanganui Race 5 - Sharen Tunnell @ Arizto Real Estate Hcp
SWORD IN STONE (2) will find this much easier here than last start at G3 where he ran last but was not beaten out of sight. He can win this after a 3kg claim and drawn the ace in a small field. KICK ON (1) he is already course-proven. Always competitive in these types of fields so hard to see out of the finish. Best on wet tracks. JUST CHARLIE (4) is a multiple-class riser here. Drops 3.5kg in this and is a threat here on dry or wet footing. Likely leader. HEART OF GOLD (3) is a class dropper in this. Well drawn. Should settle down second pursuing the leader JUST CHARLIE. His best can pay a dividend here for sure.
