Rotorua Race 6

HAVE YOUR FUNCTION AT ARAWA PARK 1950

Stake: $25,000

THEHORSECALLEDDAVE (7) is having no luck with his barrier draws, and it is what cost him any chance of a top 4 finish last time out. Stepping up to a middle distance will suit him, and if he has a softer trip from another wide gate here, then he should be in all top 4 combos. GO JOANNA (12) ended up getting too far out of her ground over a mile last time out, and will have a more aggressive senior rider on board this time. The extra 350m is the key, and she can bounce straight back into the money. AIR DANCER (3) should have finished closer at Tauranga 18 days ago after his jockey got into trouble late. He cops a better draw this time and can take this out. EMPHATIC (4) and MIDNIGHT SHOW (8) are both top 4 chances at odds in an even field.

Previously second-up 2nd of 12 at Te Rapa 2yo+ Mdn-Sw on April 26 over 1600m, on a slow track; 1.3 len behind Wind Rush carrying 55.5kg at $49.20.

At the latest run tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 9 at Tauranga on November 15 over 2100m, slow going 4 len behind Zacabasso carrying 58.5kg at $4.20. The race before that 5th of 10 at Avondale on November 6 over 2100m, slow going 3.5 len behind Charlemagne with 58.5kg at $27.20. Certainly worth another chance.

Last start 7th of 14 at Te Aroha on November 11 over 1600m, on a slow track; 1.5 len behind Regal Wings with 55.5kg at $31. The run before that 7th of 11 at this track on October 12 over 1400m, in the wet; 5 len behind Yamato Satona with 58.5kg at $12.30. Wasn't too far off the mark last time. Can improve and is worth thought.

Third race start today. At long odds at debut, rolled along in front then was edged out late 3rd of 13 at Te Aroha on October 22 over 1400m, on a slow track; 0.9 len behind Tellum carrying 53kg at $25.70. Last start 11th of 13 at Pukekohe on November 8 over 1600m, 9 len behind Ariadne carrying 54.5kg at $7.60. Not a great draw again but represents a major threat.

Last start failed to make an impression; ran last of 8 at New Plymouth Raceway on November 21 over 2000m, slow going 13 len behind Black Sea with 57kg at $17. The race before that sat on the pace before fading 9th of 13 at Pukekohe on November 8 over 1600m, 7 len behind Ariadne with 57.5kg at $28.10. Each way value.

Last start eased back early on 6th of 10 at this track on November 16 over 1560m, on a slow track; 5.5 len behind Ammirati carrying 56.5kg at $30.20. Before that second last in a small field at Pukekohe on October 29 over 2200m, on a wet track; 11 len behind Our Easy Street carrying 55.5kg at $4.60. Capable of a big run.

Racing well recently. Comes here off a 35-day let-up. Last start 3rd of 8 at Pukekohe on October 29 over 1600m, on heavy track; 2.75 len behind Cirque Du Rose carrying 55kg at $11.50. The run before that 4th of 7 at Avondale on October 8 over 1600m, in the wet; 6 len behind Bonnard with 54kg at $19.70. Has upside and poses a threat.

Lining up for just third start. At big odds at debut, second last of 11 at Ellerslie on October 25 over 1400m, on a slow track; 8 len behind Belle Cheval carrying 56.5kg at $36.10. Last start 8th of 13 at Pukekohe on November 8 over 1600m, 6 len behind Ariadne carrying 55.5kg at $55.90. Happy to look elsewhere on what he's shown so far.
