20230504 – Northam Thursday

“Mandurah Oaks a No Race”

Stewards were left with no option but to declare today’s Mandurah Oaks a ‘No Race’. All bets were refunded following the running of the feature event which was run at Northam given the Mandurah trackworks. Pyroclasm and Bronte Blazer were fighting out the finish but unfortunately Jami Keeping came back in the other direction and affected runners in the home straight. It was a disappointing result for all involved on what was a perfect day weather-wise.

Earlier in the afternoon former Tasmanian Manila Prince clocked a sizzling 29.30 over the 509m journey. The son of Fernando Bale had struck bother at his two Cannington starts but had won 14 of his previous 22 in Tasmania.

HOUNDS TO FOLLOW :

Race 1 Number 3 CREATE CHAOS : Ran on strongly along the fence and will win one soon.

Race 4 Number 5 STEP BACK THREE : Hit the line like a rocket to win in 30.05 and will gain plenty of confidence.
