Finished runner-up over 1950m at Rangiora last start after she was unplaced two back at Ashburton Raceway. Sure to play a major role.

5-11 Reefton 09Mar25 2500SS $11,790 NON-WINNERS 3U John Versteeg $48, btn 16.2m, wnr Waterloo Station , 2:14.0 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Finished 16 metres back in fifth at her latest outing over 2500m at Reefton. Has the task ahead.

7-7 Central Southland Raceway 29Aug24 2400SS $10,950 NON-WINNERS WITH COND. SPECIAL Matthew Williamson $3, btn 81.8m, wnr Popnrock , 2:11.7 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Broke at the start. Trotted roughly through the middle stages. Broke again rounding the final bend losing all chance.

Last raced at Central Southland Raceway six-and-a-half months ago when he finished seventh, beaten 80 metres over 2400m. Big chance to return a winner.

3-12 Rangiora 02Mar25 1950SS $12,000 NON-WINNERS 3U Jim Curtin $3, btn 3.5m, wnr Spotlight , 2:07.9 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Finished third two weeks ago over 1950m at Rangiora to continue the solid recent form. Looks very hard to beat.

4-6 Addington 14Mar25 2600MS $14,320 NON-WINNERS 3U Stephen Mcnally $17, btn 39.7m, wnr Dynasty , 2:03.5 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Has been kept safely at bay in two runs this campaign, the latest a 40 metres fourth over 2600m at Addington. This looks a nice assignment.

3-6 Addington 14Mar25 2600MS $14,320 NON-WINNERS 3U Samantha Ottley $19, btn 17.6m, wnr Dynasty , 2:03.5 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Placed at his last appearance 11 weeks ago over 2600m at Addington. Likely to figure prominently.

9-14 Motukarara 16Feb25 2170SS $12,420 NON-WINNERS 3U D L Dolan $10, btn 25.4m, wnr Rakero Ace , 2:09.0 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Finished second at Mt Harding two starts back then couldn't repeat the dose over 2170m at this track last time, finishing 25 metres from the winner. Can play a role in the finish.

6-14 Motukarara 16Feb25 2170SS $12,420 NON-WINNERS 3U Philippa Wakelin $42, btn 18.4m, wnr Rakero Ace , 2:09.0 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Hampered by a breaking runner after 150m. Over-raced early stages.

Easily accounted for last time when 18 metres from the winner in sixth over 2170m at this track. Facing a tough assignment this time around.

11-11 Reefton 09Mar25 2500SS $11,790 NON-WINNERS 3U Samantha Ottley $10, btn 380.7m, wnr Waterloo Station , 2:14.0 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Finished 380 metres back in 11th at her latest appearance over 2500m at Reefton. This looks a suitable assignment.

12-12 Rangiora 02Mar25 1950SS $12,000 NON-WINNERS 3U John Morrison $36, btn 356.4m, wnr Spotlight , 2:07.9 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Broke at the start losing all chance.

Was safely held last time out in 12th over 1950m at Rangiora, beaten 355 metres. Not keen on his chances in this field.

4-12 Rangiora 02Mar25 1950SS $12,000 NON-WINNERS 3U Robbie Holmes $37, btn 5.7m, wnr Spotlight , 2:07.9 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Raced greenly and shifted outwards passing the 1600m.

Again missed the placings last time out but was only 5.5 metres away in fourth over 1950m at Rangiora. This looks a nice assignment so watch for a better run.

9-12 Rangiora 02Mar25 1950SS $12,000 NON-WINNERS 3U Sheree Tomlinson $33, btn 49.7m, wnr Spotlight , 2:07.9 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Continued some plain form when a poor ninth at Rangiora over 1950m two weeks ago. Unlikely to threaten.

3-13 Oamaru 05Mar25 2000SS $10,175 NON-WINNERS 3U John Morrison $15, btn 29.7m, wnr Luby's Luck , 2:03.1 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Tried hard last time to finish 30 metres from the winner in third over 2000m at Oamaru. Not as keen on his chances in this line-up.
