  The 'Day's Best'

  

  4 Taimate Staar  

  Dividend : $2.70, $1.30

  Won

  F: 43932   B(5)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Bruno Queiroz )

   ( T- Andrew Carston )

  A 5yo now and 16 starts without a win, but this does look like the day that changes. Has placed 6 times, the interesting aspect of this it that the majority of those places have been this campaign

  Main Danger

  

  5 Golden Lining  

  F: 03742   B(3)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Kate Hercock )

   ( T- Centaine Spittles )

  Ex northerner that comes south for debut down there on the back of a good second at Otaki. And northern jockey, who rode it two back, is reunited

  Next Best

  

  1 Soul Destroyer  

  F: X2974   B(4)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Kendra Bakker )

   ( T- Lance Robinson )

  Not far away when going over ground for the first time last start. The Heavy ground probably didn't suit either so better placed today

  Dividend : $1.30

  Place

  F: 52422   B(7)  W(57.5)

   ( J- Yogesh Atchamah )

   ( T- Ross Beckett )

  This 5yo has been lightly raced and has three seconds on its CV, two of them in its last two starts. Only a head away in both of them and now on the quick back up from last week, a good sign

  Main Danger

  

  11 Andina  

  F: 4555X   B(8)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Tina Comignaghi )

   ( T- John & Karen Parsons )

  Resuming after a 6 month spell and did look much improved when winning recent trial to prepare. In-form stable and Tina is a good booking

  Next Best

  

  4 Contest  

  F: 6X463   B(1)  W(57.5)

   ( J- Corey Campbell )

   ( T- Anna Furlong )

  5 lengths behind our Top Pick last week and now also on the quick back up. Improving but will be surprised it it can turn that around

  F: 69642   B(5)  W(57.5)

  11 Enchanted Dream  

  F: 5X   B(2)  W(56.0)

   ( J- Bruno Queiroz )

   ( T- Andrew Carston )

  Not that far away on its debut last October, and spelled straight after. Will be matured now and its tight odds in the market suggest its been going OK in preparation

  Main Danger

  

  10 Novelette  

  Dividend : $2.70, $1.50

  Won

  F: 7X734   B(5)  W(56.0)

   ( J- Triston Moodley )

   ( T- Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )

  Two of this Te Akau's 3yo's runs have been in the south and is running well. Tristan takes over and it must be hard to beat

  Place

  F: 7X8X   B(1)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Kendra Bakker )

   ( T- Lance Robinson )

  4yo with just the two runs, both last year and the last of them in September. Resumes and rails draw to advantage

  Consider

  

  8 Recital  

  F: 32073   B(11)  W(56.0)

   ( J- Yogesh Atchamah )

   ( T- Nayton Mitchell )

  2 Volatile  

  F: 9   B(4)  W(58.0)

   ( J- Tina Comignaghi )

   ( T- Danny Frye )

  Never a chance from a wide draw on debut but will have learnt plenty from the experience. Tina sticks and that's a good sign

  3 Kirchmeyer  

  F: 0   B(3)  W(58.0)

   ( J- Leah Hemi )

   ( T- Terri Rae )

  Was well fancied on debut three weeks ago, having looked good in a trial prior, but never ran a race and clearly not all was right. Can redeem itself here

  Main Danger

  

  11 Queen Of Sheba  

  Dividend : $2.00, $1.10

  Won

  F: 223X   B(5)  W(56.0)

   ( J- Tina Comignaghi )

   ( T- Anna Furlong )

  Three close up finishes in its only three runs suggests it will be winning one soon. Concern is that it is its first run in four months

  2 Admiralty  

  F:   B(8)  W(58.0)

   ( J- Terry Moseley )

   ( T- Brian Court and Jesse O’Flaherty )

  Consider

  

  14 Skinny Love  

  F:   B(1)  W(56.0)

   ( J- Triston Moodley )

   ( T- Lance Robinson )

  Worth a closer look as on debut from the rails draw, and this good apprentice is in the saddle

  F: 6X70   B(6)  W(58.0)

   ( J- Amber Riddell )

  9 Steezy  

  F: 96212   B(10)  W(57.5)

   ( J- Kylie Williams )

   ( T- Andrew Carston )

  This 3yo looks a solid investment given it has won one and been second four times (one of them being in a Stakes race last time) from its 8 starts. Just has to overcome the wide draw and it should be winning

  Main Danger

  

  10 Mis Speaks  

  Dividend : $8.70, $3.70

  Won

  F: 00X60   B(5)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Terry Moseley )

   ( T- Meg Cunneen )

  Trainer runs two in the race and they both look solid chances. Terry Moseley won a trial on this one last month and sticks for this race day run

  Dividend : $3.10

  Place

  F: 25655   B(1)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Kate Hercock )

   ( T- Lyn Prendergast )

  Despite coming out of gate 12, it looked a chance early in the straight at Riccarton over the 1000m. Rails draw and will find this 1200m more its gig

  1 Discretion Rules  

  F: 300X6   B(3)  W(60.0)

  F: 71083   B(6)  W(57.0)

  Place

  F: 07017   B(5)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Kendra Bakker )

   ( T- John & Karen Parsons )

  Liked the way it took out a 2000m race two back and though it disappointed last start, we're prepared to give it another chance

  7 Strong  

  F: 00363   B(2)  W(57.5)

   ( J- Kate Hercock )

   ( T- Bruce Tapper )

  Nice run into third last start and now Kate Hercock adds the value. She is a good strong rider and gets the best out of them

  Consider

  

  2 Sincere  

  F: 45504   B(9)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Bruno Queiroz )

  F: 02100   B(4)  W(58.0)

   ( J- Krishna Mudhoo )

  Won

  F: 822X4   B(6)  W(54.0)

   ( J- Kylie Williams )

   ( T- Andrew Carston )

  Although this 6yo has only won the one race, it should have won more, having finished second 6 times! It now starts a new chapter in its career with joining this good southern stable and can add to its winning tally first up in the south

  Main Danger

  Dividend : $2.00

  Place

  F: 30100   B(1)  W(54.5)

   ( J- Triston Moodley )

   ( T- Terri Rae )

  Very capable 5yo with a good trainer. Just a length behind Insatiable when resuming 12 days ago, it now has this talented apprentice in the saddle. Rails draw

  4 Insatiable  

  F: 33210   B(7)  W(57.5)

   ( J- Bruno Queiroz )

   ( T- Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )

  Te Akau runner with recent winning form and good ability. It's stablemate took out the race last start but with Bruno now taking over, it will be sure to be in the mix

  Consider

  

  1 Third Decree  

  F: 68094   B(8)  W(60.0)

   ( J- Amber Riddell )

   ( T- Michael & Matthew Pitman )

  The Pitmans often do well at this track but they haven't got the runners here today. This one is worth considering

  Interesting to note Whanganui jockey Leah Hemi rides for this trainer here, when she tends to ride most of Terri Rae's runners. Very honest galloper

  F: 50X52   B(11)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Kate Hercock )

   ( T- Jamie Bullard )

  This 7yo is running well and looks some EW value here. Second just three weeks ago on a Heavy8, that probably didn't suit it, it is now third up and at peak fitness

  Main Danger

  

  4 Jaffa  

  F: 45434   B(8)  W(57.5)

   ( J- Tina Comignaghi )

  Won

  F: 57341   B(3)  W(57.5)

   ( J- Triston Moodley )

   ( T- Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )

  Although it has a lot going for it, including being out of the Te Akau stable and comes into this as a last start winner, it does look beatable now stepping up to R75

  Consider

  

  7 Pogacar  

  F: 1X1X7   B(5)  W(57.0)

  F: 20160   B(14)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Tina Comignaghi )

   ( T- Anna Furlong )

  Despite the draw, this Stephen Marsh trained runner wasn't far away last time and we duly selected it last week. However, it was a late scratching .... so we're sticking with it today, although it has drawn wide again

  5 Richie's Dream  

  F: 78844   B(5)  W(58.0)

   ( J- Bruno Queiroz )

  F: 43046   B(2)  W(60.0)
