Wagga Race 7 - Mataranka Park Standardbreds Pace
OH SWEET CREATURE (9) did a good job for a 2m third in a higher-graded race at Maryborough last start and scored the last time he raced here, taking his record at the circuit to two wins and a placing from three attempts. Also owns a good record at the distance and draws for a nice trail. MIKI LOCH (7) draws wide but came from one spot deeper when he won here earlier in the month and has been close-up since including a 1.7m second last week. LE BETTY (5) draws lower than in the last-start fourth and strikes at 50 per cent at this venue including a win the only time she attempted this distance here. BUBBY TO BASE (6) had a tough draw last time at Melton but was racing consistently prior so is worth another chance.

Good run when beaten by 5 m finishing fourth behind Mister Bluechip at Canberra over 2170m in a NR up to 65 on February 9 at $41. Then a handy effort when beaten by 6 m finishing third behind Hello I Tea at Young over 2100m in a NR up to 57 on February 17 at $11. Can play a role in the finish again.

Two back was well beaten into fifth after a quick start, behind Captains Knock at Albury over 2570m in a LR No NR on February 13 at $51. Then a handy effort when beaten by 3.5 m finishing third after being driven well back, behind Farfalla Stride at this track over 1740m in a 4yo+ NR up to 70 on February 20 at $41. One of the chances.

Two back was well beaten into ninth after showing early speed, behind Franco Novelist at Shepparton over 2190m in a 0W/15 0K stake on January 17 at $16. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2 m finishing third behind New Yorker at Maryborough over 2190m in a NR 60 to 80 on February 4 at $31. Nicely placed and may prove hard to beat.
