Wagga Race 3 - Nijinksy @ Yirribee Stud Pace
WAITANDSEE (5) settled in the leading division and closed well to score in a 2100m race at Young last start, arriving a head ahead of his rivals to make it two wins from his past four appearances. Finds a tougher race but he has the ability to test this field. CARBINEER (10) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 3.5 metres from the winner in fourth over 1609m at Menangle. Won't find this any harder and he can grab that well-deserved win. MAJOR HAYLEY (1) is better than her last-start seventh over 1740m at this track would suggest. Worth considering. ARENDELLE (3) is a chance after finishing in the money for the second time in a row last start, beaten 1.4 metres into second at this track.

Recent efforts haven't been up to her best. Last start was well back in the run when 7th (Fr8) over 1740m at this track was 7th-13 at the bell, beaten 5.5 m by Hezaflashone (2:05.60) on August 14 at $34. The start before was driven from back in the field when 5th (Fr6) over 1740m at this track, at the bell was 8th-12.8 beaten 3.5 m by Warieda Boy (2:06.20) on August 7 at $9. Better than recent form suggests.

Two back was well beaten into third behind Atua Magic at this track over 2270m on August 7 at $26. Then a handy effort when beaten by 1.4 m finishing second behind Hezaflashone at this track over 1740m on August 14 at $8. Has claims based on recent efforts.

Chasing a hat-trick. Last start ran on from midfield and won by a nose (Sr2) held up early, at Young (2:38.10) beating In The Summertime in on August 18 at $8 at the bell was 5th-8.4. Hard to leave out on current form. Has to be included.

Hard to fault of late. Last start raced just off the speed and boxed on; won by a head (Sr2) at Young (2:39.30) beating Gibbs in on August 4 at $3.60 at the bell was 2nd-0.2. One of the primary contenders.
