THRILLING ISSAC (4) jumped from a middle draw last time and could manage only 4th and beaten 2.25 lengths (17.73) at Wanganui Straight. The form from his last run stacks up well. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. OPAWA TART (7) stalked the lead from a middle draw and boxed on well to finish 5 lengths back in third (30.78) at Wanganui in a Class 1 over 520m. Leading player again. SWIFT SHADOW (2) produced a modest effort most recently when sixth at Wanganui Straight over 313m behind Bora Bora (18.17) in a Class 1. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. CONNIE'S COMET (5) should be thereabouts despite an unplaced run here most recently.
