Wagga Race 7 - Riverina Crane Services Waratah Heat
Hard to knock the recent consistency of DONNIE MAC (1) having recorded two wins and three minor placings from the past five starts. Raced three wide without cover but toughed out a win two back at this circuit and distance then led from wider and stuck on in a last-start third at Menangle so has the speed to take full advantage of the ace draw. SNAKE OIL (3) came from a wide barrier when he scored at this circuit and distance three runs ago. Solid last time out when second at Leeton. Has the benefit of a good draw so is a leading hope. GO COLOUR MY WORLD NZ (7) led from a similar draw when he scored by more than 6m last start at this circuit and distance. Can play a big role again. JANIE BLU (8) came from a similar barrier to score last week, her second success in her last three outings here.

Beaten favourite last start when third at Menangle on July 4. Was victorious the start before at this track on June 26. Racing well and should get every chance from the ace draw.

Two back was well beaten into fifth behind Donnie Mac at this track over 1740m in a 4yo+ on June 26 at $11. Then a handy effort when well beaten into second behind Keayang Dreamgirl at Leeton over 1758m on July 7 at $2.10. Has a low draw and can make an impact.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 4.5 m fifth behind Little Sassy Boy at Albury over 1770m last start. Before that was beaten 2.5 metres second at this track over 2270m same class on June 30. Could be there at the business end.
