  F: 9200X   B(9)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Michael McNab )

   ( T- Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )

  Te Akau runner resuming after six month spell and given Michael McNab has been secured to ride, it must be going well. First run in the south

   ( J- Ashlee Strawbridge )

   ( T- John & Karen Parsons )

  9 Dujour  

  F: 05643   B(11)  W(54.5)

   ( T- David Medcalfe )

  Might well have won one of its recent races but for the wide draws. Wide again today but might overcome it

  1 Bellish Boy  

  F: 6324X   B(10)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Michael McNab )

   ( T- Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )

  Te Akau runner that had 5 runs up north, showing good promise, and now makes southern debut. It won a recent trial confirming it had trained on and with Michael McNab up it going to be the one to beat

  Main Danger

  

  13 Gina Gillotti  

  Dividend : $2.50

  Place

  F:   B(1)  W(54.0)

   ( J- Yogesh Atchamah )

   ( T- Lance Robinson )

  On debut. There's no depth in the field so from the inside gate, it looks the best quinella chance

  3 Theonewekept  

  F: 568X   B(9)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Alyssa Parris )

   ( T- Len & Lacy Stewart )

  Ex northerner on southern debut. Didn't show a lot in three runs up there but has won a trial in the south t prepare and attracted a lot of early money, having opened at $20

  Consider

  

  9 Nika Deloire  

  Dividend : $3.20

  Place

  F: 4849X   B(12)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Rohan Mudhoo )

   ( T- Ebony Turner )

  Resumes after four races in first campaign. Given two of those were in Stakes races, connections must think it has good ability

  4 Cool Aza Rene  

  Dividend : $1.75

  Place

  F: 3424X   B(8)  W(57.5)

   ( J- Michael McNab )

   ( T- Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )

  Te Akau could start the meeting with a bang as this one also has Michael McNab in the saddle and certainly is best performed galloper in the race

  Main Danger

  

  6 Mi Bella  

  F: 2711X   B(6)  W(57.5)

   ( J- Ashlee Strawbridge )

   ( T- Anna Furlong )

  Young trainer has done a great job with this 6yo mare, culminating with two wins before being sent for a spell in April. Resumes and sure to be tuned up, with the booking of this apprentice a bonus

  Next Best

  

  8 Miss Starlight  

  F: 0632X   B(1)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Rohan Mudhoo )

   ( T- John & Karen Parsons )

  After looking a real prospect on the back of winning three in its first campaign, it was stepped up to Stakes company for its last five races as a 3yo, finishing close up in four of them. Resumes and favoured with the rails draw

  Consider

  

  11 Honor The Name  

  Dividend : $3.80, $1.60

  Won

  F: 42131   B(3)  W(55.0)

   ( J- Samantha Collett )

   ( T- Samantha Wynne )

  This former jockey has had winners early on and this one got the job done in style at a competitive festival of racing here earlier this month

  2 Eye Spy  

  F: 21344   B(2)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Yogesh Atchamah )

   ( T- Brian & Shane Anderton )

  Just four lengths behind Honor The Name on this course last time and, as it was resuming then, will have taken improvement

  1 Zafar  

  F: 1X   B(5)  W(58.0)

   ( J- Michael McNab )

   ( T- Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )

  Yes, we're with the Te Akau stable again here. Odds on when winning here in May, it could be pretty smart and can win again

  Main Danger

  

  2 Enchantment  

  F: X215X   B(1)  W(56.0)

   ( J- Triston Moodley )

   ( T- Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )

  Another Te Akau winner here in April, with Michael McNab in the saddle, but found Zafar too good in may. Spelled and will have matured in that time away from the track. Rails draw to advantage

  Next Best

  

  5 Glamour Extreme  

  Dividend : $2.05

  Place

  F: 1   B(2)  W(55.0)

   ( J- Rohan Mudhoo )

   ( T- Ebony Turner )

  It might have paid $28 when winning at Oamaru last month in its only race to date, but it showed a terrific turn of foot to beat a warm favourite that day and should run well again

  Consider

  

  10 Niccita  

  F:   B(3)  W(54.0)

   ( J- Matt Cartwright )

   ( T- Pam Gerard )

  On debut and this trainer wouldn't be bringing it south if she didn't think it had the ability

  Longer Odds

  

  9 Luminosity  

  F: 2X   B(9)  W(54.0)

   ( J- Kylie Williams )

   ( T- Nick Wigley & Kayla Milnes )

  First race for over a year, when it went nicely to finish second. Clearly there must have been issues since but we note it has won a trial to prepare

  Won

  F: 2420X   B(11)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Matt Cartwright )

   ( T- Michael & Matthew Pitman )

  Australian import making its NZ debut out of the Pitman stable. They'll be sure to have it ready to hit the ground running and just needs to overcome the wide draw

  Main Danger

  

  7 Dorothea  

  F: 4551X   B(12)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Ashlee Strawbridge )

   ( T- David Walsh )

  It only took two starts for David Walsh to get this one winning it the south, after it relocated from the north in April. It has subsequently had time away from the race track to fully settle in and now resumes. In-form apprentice rides

  Next Best

  

  2 Mad Max  

  Dividend : $1.30

  Place

  F: 4548X   B(2)  W(59.5)

   ( J- Michael McNab )

   ( T- Terri Rae )

  Ex norther that won two from 19 starts up there and now on debut out of the strong Terri Rae stable in the south. Looks a strong chance with its inside draw and Michael McNab in the saddle

  Consider

  

  4 Marokopa Falls  

  F: 7338X   B(6)  W(57.5)

   ( J- Triston Moodley )

   ( T- Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )

  F: 4399X   B(4)  W(56.0)

  7 Moving Melody  

  Dividend : $3.30, $1.40

  Won

  F: 6498X   B(5)  W(54.0)

   ( J- Triston Moodley )

   ( T- Terri Rae )

  This former northerner should be winning, having relocated to this strong stable since its last run at Ellerslie in March. Interesting to note this apprentice rode it to win a trial here earlier in the month and has stuck with it for race day

  Main Danger

  

  4 Trobriand  

  Dividend : $1.28

  Place

  F: 8012X   B(4)  W(56.0)

   ( J- Michael McNab )

   ( T- Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )

  There's probably not a lot between this one and the other Te Akau runner but given Michael McNab has the reins, we assume it's their best chance

  5 Mr Fortrus  

  F: 12611   B(8)  W(55.5)

   ( J- Akshay Balloo )

   ( T- John Blackadder )

  Comes to this after two wins on the synthetic. Has stepped up recently and might do that on the turf here

  Consider

  

  2 Insatiable  

  F: 0611X   B(2)  W(59.5)

   ( J- Samantha Collett )

   ( T- Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )

  Te Akau also runs this 7yo, a seven time winner and with little overall depth in the field, should finish in the first four, fresh up

  Longer Odds

  

  8 Motiontime  

  F: 16535   B(3)  W(54.0)

   ( J- Matt Cartwright )

   ( T- Michael & Matthew Pitman )

  Also down to run in an earlier race and opted for this, with the Pitmans scratching their star galloper out of this overnight

  Won

  F: 01161   B(7)  W(54.0)

   ( J- Ace Lawson-Carroll )

   ( T- Samantha Wynne )

  What a win this one's was for this trainer, not long into the trade after hanging up her boots, and beating off the northern brigade at Riccarton's festival of racing. Looks smart

  Main Danger

  

  12 Atullibigeal  

  F: 48X63   B(2)  W(54.0)

   ( J- Samantha Collett )

   ( T- John Blackadder )

  This is an interesting runner out of the strong Blackadder stable, in as much as it comes off a third on the synthetic to open here at $15 and backed down to $5.50 by last night. Let's not take away the fact that this is only its third run since coming from Hong Kong

  Dividend : $3.10

  Place

  F: 1140X   B(1)  W(59.0)

   ( J- Matt Cartwright )

   ( T- Michael & Matthew Pitman )

  The highest rated galloper in the field, this Pitman runner would win this easily if at the top of its game. We doubt it will be, but might still win from its rails draw

  Consider

  Dividend : $2.15

  Place

  4 In Vegas  

  F: 2130X   B(8)  W(57.5)

  2 Sebastiano  

  F: 981   B(6)  W(59.0)

   ( J- Kendra Bakker )

   ( T- Krystal Williams )

  Didn't take long for this former northerner to start returning their investment for the new owners, winning at its first time of asking, at Oamaru two weeks ago. Gets the 2kg claim and might go in again

  Main Danger

  

  14 What She Wants

  F: 9X422   B(12)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Kylie Williams )

   ( T- Shankar Muniandy )

  What a fairy take ending this would be if Kylie Williams could sign off in the saddle with a win here. Certainly has the form to be winning but gate 15?

  Next Best

  

  9 I Dunnet  

  F: 71X90   B(9)  W(57.5)

   ( J- Ashlee Strawbridge )

   ( T- Kenny Rae )

  Comes south with little form itself but with form around it - this apprentice is riding the crest of a wave while Kenny Rae is having a good run. This a whole out easier than Ruakaka too

  Consider

  

  1 Don Pauly  

  F: 51234   B(8)  W(60.0)

   ( J- Triston Moodley )

   ( T- Terri Rae )

  After its terrific run here at the festival, to be just 1 1/2 lengths away in a strong race, it has to be in your reckoning

  11 Ruffhouse Rosie  

  F: 2X498   B(7)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Samantha Collett )

   ( T- Alan Browne )

  Not a bad run at all here during the festival, finishing in behind them in a much stronger field than this. Sam Collett adds to its chances

  7 Balance Of Power  

  Dividend : $1.60

  Place

  F: 63494   B(4)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Michael McNab )

   ( T- Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )

  Another strong Te Akau chance; another with Michael McNab in the saddle. Was only three lengths away here at the festival and if handling the Heavy track conditions, will be very hard to beat

  Main Danger

  

  13 The Boss Lady  

  F: 1X976   B(7)  W(54.5)

   ( J- Brett Murray )

   ( T- Jamie Bullard )

  Has had three runs this campaign so will be at peak fitness. Both previous wins have been on a Heavy track and the 1800m should be ideal now

  5 Another Won't Hurt  

  F: 43119   B(8)  W(58.0)

   ( J- Rohan Mudhoo )

   ( T- Adam Scott )

  This Whanganui galloper has stayed on after the festival meeting here, when it wasn't too far away in a good field. Won two races up north prior to that and that's good form for this race

  Won

  F: X6131   B(1)  W(54.5)

   ( J- Samantha Collett )

   ( T- Kenny Rae )

  This northern runner has certainly stepped up in the las two months, to win two of its three races. While they have been impressive, and we think it will be even better over this distance, do note it is yet to place in the Heavy
