  1 Transatlantic  

  F: 02   B(7)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Ulrika Holmquist )

  Place

  F: 7x02   B(3)  W(55.0)

   ( J- Jasmine Fawcett )

  Good run at New Plymouth over Christmas and takes benefit. Trainer rates the winner that day as very useful so it was a pretty good effort to get within a 1/2 length

  6 Hard Attack  

  F: 24x57   B(2)  W(55.0)

  Although 10th of 12 runners when resuming, it was only 4 1/2 lengths behind the winner. Considering it was its first race in over a year, it will take a lot of improvement

  F: 23560   B(9)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Tegan Newman )

   ( T- Stephen Marsh )

  This Stephen Marsh runner is a confident selection. Has been close up in both R65 and R75 recently and might well have won one. Stepped up to a Stakes race at Ellerslie last time, it was at big odds but actually not far away at the finish.

  Just five runs and big spells between races suggests all has not gone smoothly. But resumed 18 days ago and wasn't far away so expect all is well now, given that it is turning out again

  F: 4x8   B(8)  W(56.5)
