Te Rapa Race 5 - JAMES & ANNIE SARTEN MEMORIAL
JUSTIN CASE (1) Picked up nicely to win last time at Hastings on a heavy surface and promising career start. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. Goes close. SYSTEM OF PLAY (2) Strong effort to the line to win last time at Ellerslie. Michael Mcnab and Sam Bergerson & Mark Walker are highly regarded when paired. Likes the cut in the ground. Good prospects. INCANDESCENT (3) Managed to place 3rd last start at Hastings. Has not missed the money this preparation in 2 attempts. Will be competitive. SHAMBO JACK (7) Charged home to win last time at Matamata but testing ability against stronger contenders. Placed at every start this campaign. Opie Bosson rates highly aboard. Can give this a shake.

Ran on hard when winning last time at Hastings and solid career start. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Kris Shailer has been training plenty of winners recently. Expecting a solid performance.

Odds of $2.80 and mediocre display when 9th last time at Hastings. Prefers to settle towards the rear. Watch the betting.

Narrowly denied a win last run at Tauranga but competing at a higher level of competition. The wide draw shouldn't be a problem with plenty of early speed. Will struggle against these.
