Nowra Race 5 - Ladbrokes Blackbook

WRITTEN IN GOLD (8) is an honest type in the frame at 16 of 40 starts including last time when third (19.38) over 340m at Bulli. Has a good record at this journey. Boxed wide but will go close with the right run. KICKING BINS (2) was in the money last start when second in a NG in 20.53, clocking one of the quickest times on the card and a personal best this course and distance as well. Rates a leading chance if runs up to latest. SUNNY SUE (4) was fourth in a Grade 4/5 two back then found trouble in the run and took a tumble at Bulli last time. Bold showing expected on best. KUNG FU BAY (6) was out of the frame here most recently but can atone.

Was among the placegetters latest at this track when a 3.5 lengths second but did clock an excellent 20.53 for the 365m trip. Rates a top chance with a repeat here.
