The replays and sectional times have been reviewed from Saturday’s Hawkesbury Cup meeting. Our analyst has Black Booked a runner up that was a big run resuming off a 12 month break and a Snowden sprinter that looks to be putting it all together. 

Wanaruah 

The ex Waterhouse/Bott entire was massive returning for his first run in 12 months for his new Cananough yard. He settled 1 pair back on the rail and charged to the front at the top of the straight before being run down by the impressive Golden Straand to finish 0.4L 2nd with a 1.3L gap back to 3rd. I expect the form to hold up strong from that race as they ran 0.01s quicker than the Listed Hawkesbury Rush later in the day. I’m always cautious with horses 2nd up off a long break so he could be a wait for 3rd up depending on where he lands.

Zealously 

The Snowden sprinter looks to be finding his best form after some solid showings in his previous prep. He returned with a 1.6L all the way win in the Listed Hawkesbury Rush. He definitely goes better on firm ground so we can expect him to have improvement to come.
