Manawatu Extra Race 2 - INTER - ISLAND SPRINT FINAL PBD

HENDRIX RULER (3) was strongly supported last start when a short priced favourite and duly saluted winning by 0.8 lengths at this track in a handy 21.13. Fair draw can see a good run and in form and has the ability. Winner at his latest appearance in the quickest time on the card. Well placed and will be tough to beat. SUGAR FIX (7) drew an outside box and was game in defeat when only 0.6 lengths from the winner MAX EFFORT in third (17.08) at Addington. First try on this track but is usually a reliable beginner. Expected to feature again. JEDDY SPAGHETTI (8) has some solid form under his belt and proved too classy last time to win by 2 lengths at Wanganui Straight in a handy 17.23 beating Star Boy Express. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card in scoring last start. Wide draw will suit and expected to feature again. TUAHIWI (5) generally performs well over this distance. Include in all exotic combination bets.

Form has been strong, including a victory two starts back. Last time out finished 2nd on July 9 over 295m at Addington behind Max Effort beaten half a length (17.08) in a Class 5. In form and another win would not surprise.
