Spring Nugget

Race : The SPRING NUGGET Stakes – Stakes – $70,000
Track : Queensland (AUS)
Restrictions : Fillies and mares, 2 years old
Distance : Six furlongs on the Turf

The unbeaten HUSSIE DANCER from the sabremasta stable looks the goods here. Will settle just behind the leaders and prove too strong in the run home. The only two possible threats will be STORM’N WARRIOR who should be up on the pace and EMERALD METEOR who may get too far back but will be finishing fast on the post. MY TIP – Hussie Dancer to win.
