Is going well of late, improving last start to score by half a metre over 1980m at this track. Draws to advantage and expected to go well again.

8-14 Rangiora 02Mar25 2600SS $36,225 R55 & FASTER DISCRETIONARY HAN Carter Dalgety $29, btn 9.7m, wnr Double Time , 2:01.6 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Held up early and middle stages of the run home.

Registered a nice win at Mt Harding two runs back then missed the frame but wasn't far off them last start over 2600m at Rangiora. Might find this a bit tough.

7-9 Addington 28Feb25 1980MS $18,950 R53 TO R62 3U Sam Thornley $45, btn 37.8m, wnr Beside Me , 1:55.9 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Has been out of the winner's circle for a long while. Missed out two starts back then was a distant seventh most recently over 1980m at this track. Not going well enough.

6-9 Addington 28Feb25 1980MS $18,950 R53 TO R62 3U Blair Orange $12, btn 36.5m, wnr Beside Me , 1:55.9 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Not a threat last start when sixth over 1980m at this track, beaten 35 metres. This looks a far sterner task.

Comes here off a last-start win over 2400m at Central Southland Raceway, getting home by a neck. Won't find this as easy. Not keen.

Is closing in on a win after placing at two of the last three runs, the latest effort a third at Rangiora over 2600m, beaten 3.5 metres. Gets his chance to break through.

Won two back at this track and maintained the good form with a minor placing last start over 1980m at this track. Leading contender.

Scored at Ashburton Raceway two runs back then couldn't follow it up over 2600m at Rangiora last time, albeit only 5 metres off the winner. Big chance to find the winners' list.
