Wagga Race 4 - Woodchopping Exhibition Tomorrow Evening Waratah Heat
SNAKE OIL (4) has had close to six weeks off but a recent trial win suggests he is in good order. Still developing but he has been quite consistent of late and has the ability to win this. GEM N EM NZ (1) has had a month off since she led and faded last start but has won a trial in that time. Kicked off in Australia with back-to-back-back wins, one of them at this circuit and distance, and she has the speed to take advantage of the ace draw. BULLETIN (7) is on the radar after a couple of strong efforts from the back row, winning at Coolamon before finishing only 2.7m away here last time. KRISTYSGIRL (3) hasn't been too far away from wider barriers of late. Could be competitive from this draw.

Capable of better than we have seen lately. Last start 8th (Fr2) over 1760m at Coolamon beaten 30 m by Watermain Lady (2:06.40) in 4yo+ on April 26 at $3.50. At the previous start 5th (Fr6) over 1740m after showing early speed at this track was leading by 1.7 at the bell, beaten 2.25 m by Im Alrite (2:04.40) on April 17 at $2.30. Should get every chance from the ace draw.

Two back was well beaten into tenth behind Draxon at Leeton over 2147m on April 14 at $18. Then a handy effort when a close second after a quick start, behind Set Play at this track over 1740m on May 8 at $15. Draws well so could progress further.
