Blackbookers - 19 January
Tauranga Friday, January 12
HUZZAH
Promised plenty with a number of placings earlier in his career but has been luckless in more recent starts. This time he never saw daylight and crossed the line sixth of nine with plenty in reserve. A change in fortunes is all that’s needed for a win.
Trentham Saturday, January 13
IN VEGAS
Brought strong formline north and added to it with a soldi finish into second behind an emerging stayer. Shouldn’t be hard to place in the weeks ahead.
Wingatui Saturday, January 13
BURGIE
Did well under a big weight to finish hard into third after settling in a tricky spot. Back to a middle-distance will be hard to beat next time.

MY ANNIE BELLE
Did well stepping from winning midweek maiden debut to finish third in smart age-group company. Can only get better.
