   ( J- Billy Jacobson )

  A lot of these maidens have been to the races a number of times now, without that win. So, on that basis, we're seeing this one with the potential, having gone well but only the 6 runs

  F: 62X25   B(4)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Terry Moseley )

   ( T- Shankar Muniandy )

  Four lengths behind Quinto last time suggests it has to improve, and with Terry Moseley taking over, that will help

   ( T- Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )

  Still only a 5yo, Te Akau have managed this galloper tremendously well and it's last start win at the end of February made it win number 6. It was a good effort too, coming out of gate 13 and now this smart apprentice takes over, it is a kg better off today
