Nowra tips and results

Step Quick is the only genuine leader in a field with a slow tempo predicted, and from barrier 1 he looks set to dictate terms uncontested. His prior Nowra form (2nd on Heavy) and outstanding wet-track placing record (6 from 6) make him a serious threat to hold off the closers, even shouldering top weight.

Belleistic Bonny draws the ideal mid-barrier for Nowra's soft-track bias and carries a light 55kg. She has been racing well without reward, placing in two of her last three starts, and the addition of a tongue tie first time may sharpen her further. A capable each-way threat in this maiden field.

Drama Dodger draws the ideal Nowra barrier (6) for Soft ground, carries an outstanding 70% place strike rate at this trip, and was competitive at this same track last prep. With a fast-tempo forecast rewarding balanced closers from mid barriers, she is well placed to lead the field home.

Into The Fire steps back into easier company after competing well against stronger BM60 synthetic fields, including a last-start 2nd. His current form is career-best, and he carries a solid soft-track record. The inside gate is a minor negative on this track, but his class relief and sustained fitness make him a leading player in a firm three-way finish.

More Mischief is a rare genuine course specialist at Nowra, with 2 wins and 2 thirds from just 7 starts at the track, including a close-up 3rd in this same BM66 class two runs back. His honesty and course affinity make him a strong each-way threat even from a wider gate, with soft ground unlikely to trouble a horse with this much experience over the circuit.

Brannum owns the best soft-track credentials in the field (56% placed on Soft) and drops back from tough Sydney BM72 grade into suitable BM66 company. He was runner-up at Nowra last soft/heavy start in this class, and rides with an in-form jockey who strikes at nearly 20% at this track. A slightly wide gate is the only knock on an otherwise well-suited profile.

Tessy Tee's soft-track statistics (10:1-2-2) stand out in this field, and she has been a model of consistency, rarely missing a placing. The drop back to Class 1 and a fresh mid-campaign break suggest she is well placed to go close, though she will need racing luck from an awkward rail draw in a race that is shaping as fast-run.

As a debutant, Visna is assessed on proxy factors per maiden overlay rules rather than being penalised for lacking race history.

Lady Got Bling has raced exclusively on soft ground and is building into her grade nicely, going down by a whisker last start in the same class and near-identical conditions after a maiden win beforehand. Her only query is barrier 12, wide of Nowra's preferred settling lanes, but the soft ground and lack of genuine speed in this field should let her find cover and finish over the top late.

Our price $4.50 · SP $8.00 · Coriah Keatings

Her main query is a winless record on soft ground across 5 attempts, though she has still managed to place twice. Drawn awkwardly in barrier 1, she will need luck to get into a clear running lane, but her fitness and grade-appropriate form keep her firmly in play.

Our price $8.50 · SP $13.00 · Louise Day

Sawmill is yet to miss a place at 1400m or on soft ground across her career, and she arrives second-up in improving form after a close 2nd last start in this grade. Her wide gate is the main knock, but a genuinely slow tempo with no hard leaders should let her ease across without cost.
