Ellerslie June 7 – Race 8

FANTASTIC SMILE

Smart three-year-old who scored a stylish maiden win over the same course and 1200m distance last start. Looks likely to go on with it.

 

Trentham June 7 – Race 1

YOLO

The winner of four races and more than $126,000 on the flat, the Zed mare ran a big race for second in a maiden hurdle at Te Aroha on June 2. She can go one better on a quick back-up.

 

Awapuni Synthetic June 8 – Race 2

JACK MORRISON

This Darci Brahma gelding has won four of his five starts on Awapuni’s Polytrack and is unbeaten in three appearances over 1700m. He won easily over the course and distance last start and is well capable of a repeat.

 

Timaru June 8 – Race 1

QUEEN OF NAPLES

Racing in the Te Akau tangerine, this filly finished fourth on debut at Wanganui in April before venturing south and finishing second on the Riccarton synthetic track – beaten by only a half-head. Provided she handles the rain-affected ground, she looks a clear standout in this maiden mile.
