Standout Sectionals - 8 May
Sectional Star of the Week
Race 4 Te Rapa, 4 May
Queen Zou
A set of Blinkers going on made a big difference to her when she bolted in here. Her race time and sectionals were very good and she should be hard to beat up in grade.

Race 7 Te Rapa, 4 May
Quality Time
After getting posted three wide in the open he had every excuse to tire. But instead, he came home strongly for second in the second best last 200 metres. He has form over middle distances and should improve off that run.
Race 5 Te Rapa, 4 May
Acquarello
She was held up in the straight until too late and flashed home for second place. She ran the fastest last 400 and 200 metres and the blinkers going on helped. Ready to strike now.
Race 7 Riccarton, 4 May
Go Lotte
She came home from the rear in what was a sit and sprint race for eighth place but ran the fastest closing sectionals. She is in a great patch of form.
Race 8 Riccarton, 4 May
Vindicator
From the back he came in very good sectionals for sixth. He must be hard to beat with a better run next up.
