Wagga Race 2 - Alabar Farms Nutrien Classic Sales Race Series 5 2yo Pacing C&G Final (Listed Classic)
CARDIGAN JEM (10) was surprisingly beaten as a hot favourite in last week's heat but he went into that with more than three weeks between runs so the hitout should have brought him on. Carried a boom into that after looking good in winning his first two starts in Victoria. May need some luck form the back row but looks to have the talent. Grant Dixon's BLACKJACK SAM (1) is an interesting runner as he qualified by winning his debut outing at Albion Park and has trialled well since. Came from the back row to find the front there so can take advantage of the inside draw. SMACK BANG BART (4) did a great job to beat CARDIGAN JEM after racing parked when on debut in the heats. Same draw and is open to improvement so must be a big chance to strike again. INTEMPERANCE (5) led from wider and stuck on for second in the heats to follow his debut win. Can push forward again from a favourable draw. Tough barrier for GOCCIADORO (14) but he has yet to miss the top-two so must be respected.

Last start 7th (Fr4) over 1740m at this track, at the bell was 7th-9.7 beaten 12 m by Gocciadoro (2:02.90) in 2yo CG on May 22 at $126. Two runs back was driven from back in the field when 3rd (Fr4) over 1740m at this track beaten 35 m by Intemperance (2:06.30) in 2yo on May 8 at $23. Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.

Last start was well back in the run when 6th (Fr8) over 1740m after being wide early at this track, at the bell was 9th-23.2 beaten 14 m by Smack Bang Bart (2:02.70) in 2yo CG on May 22 at $31. Two runs back won by 6 m (Sr2) at Young (2:05.70) beating Highview Bonnie in 2yo on May 12 at $2.80. This looks out of his reach.
