Wagga Race 5 - Harveys Mower & Chainsaw Waratah Heat
SNAKE OIL (9) has done most of his racing at Menangle so far, highlighted by an easy maiden win from the outside barrier. Has performed quite well despite drawing deep and working at his last couple in the city. Draws for a trail and and has more upside than most of these. FOXFIRE EASTON NZ (5) scored his first Australian win when too good at Bathurst two starts ago before another good showing for second at his latest appearance at this circuit and distance. Racing well and has strong claims. TUFFASNAILS (2) is lightly raced with upside and there was plenty of merit in his second from a wider barrier here last week. MASTER GOUDA (3) was midfield from the back line last week but came from this barrier for an easy Albury win prior so can bounce back.

Two back was beaten by 9 m finishing seventh after being driven well back, behind Spirit Of Sahara at this track over 1740m in a NR up to 53 on February 27 at $23. Then a handy effort when beaten by 1.3 m finishing second after being driven well back, behind Keayang Santiago at this track over 1740m in a NR up to 52 on March 6 at $19. Progressive and draws to feature again.

Failed to impress last start; 5th (Sr1) over 1740m at this track was 4th-13.5 at the bell, beaten 10 m by Go Colour My World (2:04.20) in NR up to 52 on March 6 at $6. Showed ability the outing before when he posted a big 11 m win as favourite after showing early speed, (Fr3) at Albury (2:11.60) beating Barwen Storm in NR up to 47 on February 13 at $1.05 at the bell was leading 3.4. Draws well and is capable of taking this out.

Last start was well beaten into sixth behind Oakie Smokeshow at Menangle over 1609m in a 3yo+ 2LTW so eligible 3yo+ NR55 on March 3 at $9.50. Raced better the start before that with a good run despite getting well back, when 3rd (Fr10) over 1609m at Menangle was 3rd-5.33 at the bell, beaten 5 m by Rewatch (1:51.80) in 3yo+ 2LTW so eligible 3yo+ NR55 on February 17 at $8.50.
