Sprinters down in class key to Quaddie first leg

It's a tricky start to tonight's TAB Quaddie at the Hatrick Raceway where a winning case can be made for most contenders in the 305m sprint (Race 9, 8.15pm).

Uno Allegro and Moody Man, two sprinters who gain class relief by escaping from the open class sprinting ranks, look leading prospects.

Queen Cobra has been displaying early pace from the traps lately and she has drawn to do the same from the ace trap here.

Stiff Drink continues to deliver competitive sprints and another strong performance can be expected from trap eight here.

Cold Turkey endured a luckless sprint last Friday and must be considered from a better draw tonight.

On to leg two, where Mammy Brown can maintain her current run of tidy form.

She was a stylish winner here last Friday and franked that form when running second in an Auckland Cup heat on Sunday.

Mammy is likely to adopt her usual pacemaking role here.

Kennelmate Rene Ranger struck traffic problems in his Auckland Cup heat which saw him eliminated from that series.

Drawing out in the eight trap at the 520m start here isn't ideal. However, he can't be risked as he can hop away smartly.

Indiana Izmir also had issues in his Auckland Cup heat. He is better than what his current form line reflects and he can add value to the Quaddie.

What's Up Gee has been gallant chasing home Mammy Brown in his recent assignments here.

Rigs adds a fair degree of intrigue to the third leg 305m sprint.

He is better known over 520m, where he has clocked swift times but if he begins well from the ace trap, his rivals are racing for the minor stakes.

Anchor Rigs on one ticket, then on a percentage ticket to cover for any mistake he may make add Rosemore Osti, Armed Forces and Run Lacy Run.

Cosmic Fury secures a handy draw in the last, which he can use to his advantage.

Need To Chill is a tidy current run of form, as is Sir Richie, who is in career-best form.

Swapan has been looking for an inside trap for a while now. He gains the No1 box from where he holds upset claims.
