Oamaru Race 5 - CHAINSAWS & MOWERS OAMARU MBL PACE
UKRAINE (2) Sub-standard effort when 7th last run around here. Can show a better performance this time but coming back in distance. Won't be far away. LESTER (5) Came in 5th last start at Phar Lap Raceway. Expecting improvement but down in distance. Worth a ticket. PROSPERITY (6) Came in 4th last run at this track. Giving another chance here. No surprise to see a forward showing and one of the main hopes in this race. DOUBLE TIME (3) Ran 5th last time around here. Happy to overlook that run but coming back in trip. Driver Mia Holbrough(J) and trainer Peter Robertson & Mitchell Robertson must be respected together. Could go well at this level.
