Last raced at Ashburton Raceway five months ago when she finished fifth, beaten 14 metres over 2400m. A big run would not surprise.

3-13 Phar Lap Raceway 29Sep24 2600SS $11,193 WITH COND. Robbie Holmes $37, btn 4.6m, wnr Our Evie Rae , 2:07.8 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Did well last time to finish 4.5 metres from the winner in third over 2600m at Phar Lap Raceway. This looks a far sterner task.

1-13 Phar Lap Raceway 29Sep24 2600SS $12,210 NON-WINNERS 3U Justin Smith $4, won by 2nd Diamond Harbour , 2:08.7 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Was runner-up two starts back then scored last start at Phar Lap Raceway over 2600m by a neck. Will be a major player again.

Scored a commanding win last start, getting home by 18 metres over 2400m at Ashburton Raceway. Rates highly and can continue the winning form.

Not a threat last start when seventh first-up over 2170m at Motukarara, beaten 45 metres. Not keen on his chances in this line-up.

1-10 Rangiora 25Aug24 2600SS $10,615 NON-WINNERS MR45 TO MR50 3U John R Dunn $6, won by 2nd Clovelly Hill , 2:08.7 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Kicked off his career last start with a win by half a metre over 2600m at Rangiora. Shows promise and strips fitter.

Finished 17 metres back in fourth at his latest appearance over 2170m at Motukarara. Watch for a spike in form.

10-12 Motukarara 22Sep24 2170SS $11,500 WITH COND. Ben Hope $7, btn 73.0m, wnr Look To Da Stars , 2:09.0 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Broke at the start hampering a trailing runner losing all chance.

Strong run two back but couldn't back it up last start when tenth over 2170m at Motukarara. Well placed and expected to bounce back.

4-13 Phar Lap Raceway 29Sep24 2600SS $11,193 WITH COND. Robbie Close $16, btn 6.8m, wnr Our Evie Rae , 2:07.8 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Missed the placings last start but was only beaten 6 metres when fourth over 2600m at Phar Lap Raceway. Unlikely to threaten.

2-9 Gore Raceway 26Sep24 2700SS $14,213 NON-WINNERS WITH COND. SPECIAL Kerryn Tomlinson $4, btn 14.9m, wnr Burning Love , 2:09.0 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Bounced back last start when second at Gore Raceway over 2700m, beaten 14 metres. Heading the right way and is a leading player.

5-12 Motukarara 22Sep24 2170SS $11,500 WITH COND. Riley Harrison $33, btn 19.7m, wnr Look To Da Stars , 2:09.0 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Has raced twice this campaign and failed to fill a top-three spot on either occasion, the latest when fifth over 2170m at Motukarara, beaten 19 metres. Must do a lot more.

Is yet to hit the frame this campaign, the latest result a 13th, beaten 420 metres, over 2600m at Phar Lap Raceway. Strips fitter and from an inside draw gets her chance to shine.

12-13 Phar Lap Raceway 29Sep24 2600SS $11,193 WITH COND. Kyle Cameron $63, btn 83.7m, wnr Our Evie Rae , 2:07.8 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Finished 85 metres back in 12th at his latest run over 2600m at Phar Lap Raceway. Must improve sharply.

Safely held last time when 25 metres from the winner in fourth over 2700m at Gore Raceway. Won't find this easy. Not keen.

7-13 Motukarara 22Sep24 2170SS $11,701 R35 TO R39 Craig Thornley $23, btn 7.8m, wnr Boyz Invasion , 2:08.7 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Had difficulty obtaining clear racing room throughout the run home.

Comes here off a last-start seventh over 2170m at Motukarara, beaten 7 metres. Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.

1-14 Motukarara 22Sep24 2170SS $12,420 NON-WINNERS 3U Korbyn Newman $5, won by 2nd Schoemaker , 2:11.1 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Trotted roughly early stages.

Was a $5 chance last time and got the job done by 1.1 metres over 2170m at Motukarara. In form and sure to prove very hard to beat.

15-16 Mt Harding 14Apr24 2400SS $13,375 R42 TO R54 DISCRETIONARY HANDI Sheree Tomlinson $91, btn 96.7m, wnr The Royal Gamble , 2:14.2 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Broke near the 1700m losing ground. Hung inwards and struck track markers near the 1200m. Weakened final bend.

Last raced at this track six months ago when she finished 15th, beaten 95 metres over 2400m. Will be hard to beat despite the layoff.

11-13 Phar Lap Raceway 29Sep24 2600SS $11,193 WITH COND. John R Dunn $11, btn 53.2m, wnr Our Evie Rae , 2:07.8 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Form was solid prior to last time when 11th at Phar Lap Raceway over 2600m. Great chance to bounce back.
