Manawatu Race 10 - PAUL CLARIDGE ELECTRICAL

AVATAR SPEED (5) got the job done again after stalking the pace for his third straight win, scoring by 3.5 lengths (30.08) at Wanganui over 520m. Faces his toughest field to date but has been really impressive in the lower class. In sparkling form and looks the one to beat again. BIG TIME GUNNAR (1) shapes well for this on his sharp win a few runs back, getting around Wanganui Straight over 313m in 17.45 then hitting the frame in both runs since. Has the ability and can find winning form again from the ace box. SAVE TIME (3) is rarely far away but tends to find one better, placing 20 from 29 starts. Finished third (30.44) at Wanganui last time making it six minors on end. Form here sound including three wins. Has performed well from this box with a win and two minor placings to her name from five starts. Has reliable box manners and gets her chance. ZEUS'S MAGIC (6) impressed in his speedy 17.31 win last time. Looks an each way chance.

Not fancied in the market and didn't complete the course last start. Reasonable effort the start before when third over 375m at this track. Looking to others.

Placed last time (30.44) at Wanganui in a Class 3/4, finishing third and beaten 2.25 lengths. Goes well out of this box with a win and two minors. Thereabouts at the last couple.

Most recent effort finished last on March 24 over 313m at Wanganui Straight behind Zeus's Magic beaten 18 lengths (18.62) in a Class 2/3. Forgive the latest run. Well placed and among the chances here.

Impressive performance racing just off the speed and going on to score by 3.5 lengths in a Class 2 last start at Wanganui, recording a dominant 30.08 over the 520m journey. Cannot fault recent form and happy to have him on top.

    Impressive performance to score by 1.75 lengths in a Class 2/3 last start at Wanganui Straight, clocking a solid 17.33 over the 313m trip. Others hold stronger claims.
