Wagga Race 4 - Riverina Crane Services 3yo Pace
BAY OF FIRES (5) is a lightly-raced but progressive colt yet to miss the top-two. Came from this barrier to go under by just a head here last week. Big chance to go one better. SRIRACHA (9) was far from disgraced when fifth from this barrier in a Vicbred heat last start. Had a favourable gate and was too good at Shepparton prior. Should enjoy a pretty soft run from this draw. AFTERSHOCK (7) was a beaten favourite but still solid when a 1.4m third from a similar draw a week ago and was a winner here last month. OPAS GIRL NZ (6) kicked off in Australia with back-to-back city placings before coming from the back row and racing wide before winning here last time. Could take this next step.

Comes here second-up after a week-and-a-half. Lacklustre first-up performance when surrendered the lead and finished 5th (Fr3) over 1740m after showing early pace at this track, at the bell was 5th-9 beaten 16 m by Opas Girl (2:03.30) in 3yo on August 25 at $15. Might need easier.

Facing a tough assignment this time around.

Good performance when beaten by 6 m finishing second behind Dallascowboy at Shepparton over 1690m on August 18 at $1.25. Then a handy effort when a close second after being driven well back, behind Capture Our Heart at this track over 1740m in a 3yo on August 28 at $3.30. Progressive and may prove hard to beat.

Racing consistently. Last start raced just off the speed and boxed on; won by a head (Sr3) overraced, at this track (2:03.30) beating Im No Trouble in 3yo on August 25 at $4 at the bell was 2nd-1.2. Could go through her grades now.

Two back was beaten by 8 m finishing sixth behind Dembe at this track over 1740m in a 3yo on August 14 at $3.30. Then a handy effort when beaten by 1.4 m finishing third after a quick start, behind Capture Our Heart at this track over 1740m in a 3yo on August 28 at $3. One of the exotic contenders.
