Motukarara Race 9 - B.P.T.C. THANKS 'THE HALSWELL' FOR ITS SUPPORT MOBILE PACE
BROOKIES PLAYER (4) Ran 2nd last run at Manawatu. Can give this a shake. FOLIEJON STAR (7) Towards the tail last time at Addington. Giving another go here but will be down in distance. Can take this out. HI HOPES (10) Displayed potential when winning last start at Mount Harding and has the ideal alley. In the mix. FRANCO TIM (1) Chimed in with a win last start at this track and drawn well. Looks to be value.
