Wyong Race 1 - Mercure Kooindah Waters Ladies In The Lead Mdn Plate
BUONGIORNO (3) made an encouraging debut when he gripped on late to finish third over 1500m at Hawkesbury. Has the upside to overcome the awkward draw. Leading player. GRUNGE (4) was a month between runs when he bounced back quickly to finish second over 1630m at Wyong. Strips fitter fourth-up and can play a significant role. HALEKULANI (5) battled on fairly into a midfield finish on debut at Hawkesbury earlier this month. Is sure to have come on from the race experience and looks better suited stretching to this trip. CRISPY LEAVES (11) warmed nicely late here two weeks ago when resuming and is another that should appreciate the rise in trip. Not underestimating.

Was well in the market at debut, tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 8 in a Mdn-Sw at Muswellbrook on August 9 over 1500m, 2.75 len behind Magic Merlin carrying 59kg at $5. Not far away last time but happy enough to avoid.
