Matamata Race 4

GAVELHOUSE.COM 2000

Prize Money: $36,364

ROCTAVE (2) bounced back into form when finishing second in a good field at Trentham a fortnight ago. He has drawn a handy gate here, and in a field that is not as deep, he can go one better this time. CRACKERCOL (4) has been in work for some time, but this season has been his best. He was beaten by a slow tempo and a wide gate at Te Rapa last time out, and in this sort of field, he can figure in the top 3. Don't drop him yet. THE TRENDSETTER (12) will be backing up quickly from a last start third at Ta Rapa a week ago. She was a BM65 winner at Ruakaka before that, and she is worth including in all top 4 combos. SONORAN (13) has been mixing his form, but this assignment looks like his kind of race, and he has sound each-way claims at a price.

Last appeared three-and-a-half months ago when he finished 22 lengths from the winner in 17th over 2400m at Ellerslie. Should be right in the mix.

Usually reliable type who ran well below his best last start when 11 lengths back in 12th over 2100m at Te Rapa. Not a good sign last start so others preferred.

Placed when attempting to make all two runs back but has been safely held in two runs either side of that. Likely to struggle.

Below best last time when settled well back and never threatened to finish tenth over 2200m at Pukekohe. Better than last start so he deserves another chance.

Comments

In the money two starts back at Te Rapa but couldn't back that up when unplaced over 2100m at Ellerslie last time. Terrific chance to return to form.

Expected Settling Position: Midfield
