New Plymouth Race 3

SANDFORDS RURAL CARRIERS 1200M

Stake: $50,000

MA TE WA (5) posted a couple of effortless wins at Whanganui to open this campaign, and he should have no trouble coping with the class rise here. Top hoop Craig Grylls returns to the saddle, and he should rack up a hat-trick of wins here. MAGAWA (3) was travelling well before clipping the heels of the horse in front of him and losing his action last start. He was racing well before that, and can make amends in this. Include in all multiples. TESTING (6) was back to her best fresh up when leading all the way to score by over a length at Otaki 11 days ago. She won a trial before that and has the scope to go right on with the job. GIGI (1) made good progress last prep earlier in the year and will be even stronger now. A recent placing at the trials will ensure that he is ready to rumble fresh up. A market watch is advised. ZA SPIRIT (8) has not won for some time, and both of her wins have been on good tracks, but she has been placed in over half of her runs in the wet. Stick with her.

Form hard to fault. Most recently won by 0.5 len at Otaki July 8 over 1200m on a heavy track defeating Prioress carrying 51kg at $8.60. The run before that 4th of 8 at Wanganui on June 14 over 1200m, on rain affected going; 4 len behind Procul Boy carrying 51kg at $10.70. Impressive win last start and is in the mix again.

At the latest run second last of 8 at Otaki on July 8 over 1200m, on rain affected going; 15 len behind Testing with 60kg at $2.40. Before that 3rd of 13 at Ellerslie on June 7 over 1200m, on a slow track; 0.9 len behind Beneath The Stars with 58.5kg at $7. Great chance to atone.

Racing well recently. Most recently 4th of 8 at Awapuni Synthetic on July 4 over 1400m, long-neck behind Cut Loose with 51kg at $5.40. The start before that rolled along in front before being edged out 3rd of 12 at this track on June 10 over 1400m, on rain affected going; 2 len behind Ballroom Blitz carrying 55kg at $10.60. Sure to be thereabouts.
