Manukau Race 2 - JUST ONE SMILE PBD

GIZMO'S GADGET (3) is a handy type who notched her 1st career success when too good (19.47) from Box 3 at this track. Dead heated last start so gets a bonus run in maiden company. Well placed and can measure up. LOOKING FOR HOPE (4) was a (19.47) winner last time out at this track from Box 4. Improved sharply to dead heat last start. One of the main contenders. RIVERMAN RICHARD (6) has been hard to follow lately, running fourth (19.74) last time but prior to that ran very well when placed at this track. This looks easier and expected to improve sharply. DEVITO'S TIP (7) is worth including after a top-three finish at this track and distance most recently. Long time maiden but always a place chance.

Was lining up for just the second time last start when he finished fifth over 318m at this track. Not one of the leading chances on this occasion.

Missed the frame last time but finished in the minors two back when second (19.72) over 318m at this track. Should be around the mark.

Form has been solid with minor placings at his last five starts. Last time out finished 3rd over 318m at this track beaten 4 lengths (19.74) behind Gizmo's Gadget in a Class 0 on June 28. Definite contender.
