Wagga Town Plate: Our Last Cash

Our Last Cash returns after a 171-day spell and appears set to strike first-up. The son of Magnus suffered a minor setback when failing to make an impression at Flemington on November 11 and was subsequently sent to the paddock by Donna Scott. His barrier trials have him slowly rebuilding to his best, and with the six-year-old undefeated in three starts at this circuit, Our Last Cash represents terrific each-way value with online bookmakers in the Wagga Town Plate.

Best Bet at Wagga: Scarli Japali

Scarli Japali impressed on debut at this course on April 21 and can go one better she steps up to 1400m. She sustained a long run from the rear of the field first-up, showing plenty of tenacity as she stormed into second place. Damon Budler has the task of getting her to jump evenly from gate five, and provided she can hold a position closer than mid-field throughout the journey, Scarli Japali ought to give a bold sight.

Next Best at Wagga: Snow In May

Two exceptional barrier trials should have Snow In May ready for a first-up assault. The daughter of The Autumn Sun was strong through the wire in her most recent piece of work when asked to make minor inroads at Canterbury on April 19. The Peter & Paul Snowden barn has picked out a reasonable assignment for her debut, and with the appointment of Tyler Schiller inspiring confidence, Snow In May should prove too classy for this lot.
