   ( J- Craig Grylls )

  Craig Grylls has a couple of good rides for the Te Akau team today and he enhances their chances. Resumed with a good run 3 weeks ago and nicely drawn today

  Dividend : $1.50

  Place

  F: X3275   B(8)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Ryan Elliot )

  F: 4   B(5)  W(56.5)

  6 Popinjay  

  F: X6725   B(1)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Toni Davies )

   ( T- Mike Breslin )

  Just the five runs and has shown in its last two that it knows what the game's about now. Rails draw and this step up to 2040m should be just perfect

  Main Danger

  

  12 Bake The Cake  

  F: 66   B(12)  W(55.0)

   ( J- Kelly Myers )

   ( T- Kevin Myers )

  OK run when stepped up to 2100m last time. Drawn wide but note Craig Grylls has taken the reins

  9 Golden Lining  

  F: X7803   B(3)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Samantha Collett )

   ( T- Lisa Latta )

  Won

  F: 53   B(5)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Samantha Collett )

   ( T- Cody Cole )

  A very good strike rate for this trainer/jockey combination and they look like adding to that with this promising galloper. Well backed in both runs to date, having that experience can pay off

  Main Danger

  

  9 La Bella Uno  

  F:   B(4)  W(55.0)

   ( J- Craig Grylls )

   ( T- Robbie Patterson )

  On debut. Another string winning combination, this filly has shown good ability at the trials and won its last one comfortably

  F: 275   B(2)  W(57.0)

  Place

  F:   B(4)  W(57.5)

   ( J- Samantha Collett )

   ( T- Cody Cole )

  Another CD winner for this trainer/jockey? We think so as it was good enough to win a trial back in September and they've been patient in giving it its debut

  Main Danger

  

  15 Quenza  

  F: 8   B(7)  W(55.5)

   ( J- Hayley Hassman )

   ( T- Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )

  Te Akau runner that was 8th last time, but note that was only 3 1/2 lengths from the winner. Scratched yesterday to run here

  4 Dashing  

  F: 7X6   B(5)  W(57.5)

   ( J- Samantha Collett )

   ( T- John Bary )

  In great form, and unlucky to miss last time, but that has been over 1600m. Fortunately this isn't a strong field so should manage the drop back to 1340m, especially with rails draw and Sam Collett up

  2 To Catch A Thief  

  F: X8003   B(5)  W(59.5)

  F: 58X50   B(4)  W(55.0)
