Riverina Plaster Works Hcp (C1)
Consistent 4YO gelding who has won at this track previously. Has tactical versatility to settle forward in a race with good tempo. Main concern is his preference for wet tracks over good surfaces.
Mare dropping back from BM58 company to Class 1 grade which is a significant class drop. The addition of winkers for the first time could sharpen her up. Has proven form on good tracks and should appreciate the long straight at Wagga to finish off strongly.
Improving 5YO gelding who broke through for a maiden win last start just 8 days ago. Has placed at this track previously and is on an upward form trajectory.

Racing At The MTC On Australia Day Plate (C1)
The gear changes (cross-over nose band off, lugging bit and tongue tie on) are positive indicators for improvement, and he should get a good run from barrier 5.
Swift Gun brings solid form credentials with a recent second placing at Goulburn. His second-up record shows he typically improves significantly from his first-up run. While barrier 9 isn't ideal, he has the tactical speed to find a position and should be strong late with a good turn of foot.
Snap Decision is a lightly-raced gelding with upside potential. His perfect second-up record (winning his only second-up attempt) suggests he'll improve significantly from his first-up run. While unproven at the mile, his racing style suggests the distance will suit, and he has the tactical speed to overcome the wide barrier. Trainer Matthew Dale has a good record with improving types, and the gear changes (nose roll on, winkers off) are positive indicators.
While he's yet to win from 4 starts, his improvement curve is heading in the right direction. The inside barrier draw is advantageous at Wagga, and he carries the same weight as his last start.

Belnera brings the strongest combination of consistency and recent form to this race. Her last start third at this track and distance showed she's ready to win, and her overall record of 9 placings from 19 starts demonstrates reliability.
Cayman Island brings strong credentials with 4 seconds from 12 starts and has been knocking on the door with 2 seconds in his last 3 starts. He's proven at the distance with 2 seconds from 4 attempts and drops 2kg from his last start. While barrier 11 is a concern, he has the ability to overcome it with his consistent finishing ability, especially if the predicted fast tempo materializes.
Her track record at Wagga is impressive with 4 placings from 6 starts. While her last start was disappointing, her previous form suggests she can bounce back, especially with a good barrier draw and the services of Blaike Mc Dougall. The expected fast tempo should suit her running style.
With only 8 days since that run, her fitness is assured, and the expected fast tempo should suit her running style.

Judith's Revenge brings the strongest form credentials with multiple placings at this track and distance. The inside draw is perfect for her forward running style, and Mathew Cahill is a strong booking.
First-up from a spell which suits her pattern, and the middle draw gives options in a race with likely fast tempo.
His on-pace running style should be advantageous in this race setup, and he has a fitness edge over several key rivals. While yet to place in his career, his recent performances suggest he's ready to break through.
The inside draw from barrier 2 gives her every chance to position well, and the light weight of 54kg is a significant advantage.

Southern Cross Austereo (Bm58)
The slight class rise is offset by natural progression.
Experienced gelding dropping slightly in class after some disappointing recent runs. Has a solid record at the distance with 2 wins and 4 placings from 11 starts. The return of blinkers could sharpen him up, and the class drop gives him every chance to bounce back to form despite the wide barrier.
Mare with solid credentials coming off a win two starts back at Albury. Has excellent track statistics with 3 placings from 6 starts at Wagga. Last start 6th was respectable and the return to 1200m should suit based on her record of 2 wins and 3 placings from 9 starts at the distance. Class rise is the main concern.
Lightly-raced filly from the Luke Pepper stable resuming from a spell with a significant class drop. Has won at this track previously and boasts a solid first-up record with 1 win from 2 attempts.

Bennett & Barkell (Bm66)
Progressive 3yo gelding with an impressive 3-1-0 record from 4 starts. Unbeaten at this track and distance, winning here last start in good time. Has shown tactical versatility and strong finishing ability. The weight is a concern but has proven he can carry it successfully. Likely to be in the firing line early and has the class to sustain his run.
Lightly-raced 5yo gelding with upside, showing ability with 2 wins from 5 starts. First-up from a spell but has placed fresh previously. The inside draw should allow him to take up a forward position. Main query is the class rise, but the talent is there.
5yo mare coming off a strong first-up win at Queanbeyan. Second-up today with a good barrier draw and moderate weight. Has shown ability at this distance with 3 wins from 11 starts. The class rise is a concern, but she's shown enough ability to be competitive in this field.
Has an impressive record at this distance with 5 wins from 12 starts. Recent form includes a win at Orange over this distance. Drawn well in barrier 2 and likely to be on speed, which suits the track pattern.

Quickskip (Bm58) - Heat Of The Wagga Stayers Series
Doc March brings excellent consistency with 6 placings from his last 7 starts including a last-start 2nd at this track. His record at Wagga is outstanding with 5 seconds from 8 starts, and he's proven second-up with a win and two seconds from three attempts. The likely fast tempo should suit his racing pattern, and he maps to get a perfect midfield position from barrier 7 with top jockey Blaike McDougall aboard.
Distillery comes off a strong maiden win over 2025m at Mornington and appears to be an improving stayer. He's drawn perfectly in barrier 2 and should be able to use his early speed to settle on pace, which is advantageous at Wagga. While this is his first attempt at 1800m, he's shown he can handle longer trips and the slight drop back in distance shouldn't be an issue.
Midnight Affair brings solid consistency with placings at her last three starts, including a 3rd at this track and distance last time out. She's well drawn in barrier 4 and should get a good run in midfield with Jess Taylor aboard. While her win strike rate isn't impressive (2 from 25), she's a reliable place getter (8 placings) and has shown she handles the Wagga track. She's a genuine place chance but may find one or two too good.
She's dropping in class from her last start and carries only 55kg after Ella Bent's claim. While she'll likely settle back from barrier 9, the fast tempo should give her a chance to run on strongly. Her record on Good tracks (3 wins from 17 starts) is solid, and she's shown she can handle the Wagga circuit with a win from 6 attempts.

HBP Finance Country Boosted (Bm58)
Drawn perfectly in barrier 3 to secure a midfield position with options. Gets the services of quality jockey Blaike McDougall and should appreciate the step back up to 1400m where she's previously won.
Second-up today with a good record in this pattern (2: 0-1-0). Unproven at 1400m but breeding suggests it should suit. Drawn awkwardly in barrier 9 but has tactical speed to overcome it.
Gets in with just 55kg and has drawn well in barrier 6. While his win strike rate is modest (8%), he's placed in 25% of starts and is rarely far away. The light weight and good barrier give him strong claims in this field.
While barrier 11 is a concern, he typically settles back and should appreciate the likely fast tempo.
