NZ - Ashburton - Race 9

BALLISTIC MISS (11) was out of the money when making her South Island debut here nearly 3 weeks ago, but was not far away from the top 4 placings. She cops a wide gate again, but will find this easier, and with Tina Comignaghi keeping the faith, we will put her on top in this. UGO (2) is a capable winter performer that has been in good form on wet tracks through the summer. He won't lack fitness, and despite dropping back to a mile, he can figure in the top 4 here. SAUVAGE (6) has had excuses in his last couple of runs from bad draws. He has winning form on the track and is well worth including in all top 4 combos at a price. SACRED DIOR (10) resumes from a short spell with the inform Corey Campbell in the saddle, she is capable of figuring in the top placing in an even field. RICHIE'S DREAM (5) has shown some improvement in her last couple of games, and Bruno Queiroz picks up the ride for the first time, and he could help where it matters most. Include.
