05:27 wagga-riverside Saturday 18th October 2025

NOIR VITESSE (2) is a maiden galloper who hasn't raced since finishing 22 lengths back in ninth over 1m2f at Wyong 16 months ago. Filled a minor placing in a recent Wagga Riverside trial. Key runner. MY MATE ELVIS (9) showed early speed from a good draw last time and led until they straightened, eventually finishing fifth and beaten 3. 5 lengths over 5f87yards at Canberra Acton. Must respect the stable decision to remove the blinkers. Major player. INSTIGATE (5) finished 3. 5 lengths from the winner in fourth last start after being prominent at the bend over 5½f at Cootamundra, an improvement on her sixth on debut at Corowa the run before. Likely improver with strong prospects. BELNERA (4) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 5¼f at Leeton, beaten 4 lengths into fifth. Suitably placed so can turn things around.
