Bet of the Week 30th December - 1st January
BEST BETS
Taupo Friday December 30
Race 7 SWAZI: Has the pace to take a position and the form and experience to get the maiden win he deserves.
Kurow Friday December 30
Race 6 OUR ECHO: Stands out as the one to beat – first and second in two starts on track, has favourite track conditions, ready to go one better than unlucky last-start second.
Hastings Saturday December 31
Race 5 PODIUM: Impressive in Trentham win last time out and hard to see her not completing a hat-trick on her home track.
Te Rapa Sunday January 1
Race 4 ESS VEE ARE: Scraped home this track three weeks ago and meets tougher field, big improver though and will relish the 2400m.
Riverton Sunday January 1
Race 4 NINETEENSIXTYTWO: Finished second in first of two northern starts and looks well placed to make his mark in southern debut.
