Te Aroha Race 8

THE GRAND TAVERN 1150

Prize Money: $15,455

LA CADIERE (4) followed up some sound efforts to open this campaign with a comfortable maiden win on the Cambridge poly track just over 2 weeks ago. She won't find this much harder, and now that the penny has dropped, she has the scope to go on with it. LUMINANCE (9) has been unsuited by some really heavy tracks in both of her starts back from a spell. If she can strike a slightly firmer surface, then she can turn her form around in a field like this. LADY IMPENDING (2) has yet to fire in a couple of Bm75 fields, and she will find this much easier. She cops a wide gate, but can still take this out. NIAGARA SKY (3) resumes from a spell at an easier level than any of her 3 starts last winter. She is stronger now and looked ready to rumble when winning a trial in late April. She has been held back for the wet ground, and with the aid of a 2kg claim, she can give this a big shake. FLUTTERBELLE (6) is a genuine wet track mare resuming from a spell. Follow the market moves. OPAEA JOE (1)

In the money two starts back at Cambridge Synthetic but couldn't back that up when unplaced over 1200m at Matamata last time. Can atone.

Fresh from a 294-day break. Yet to miss a minor placing in two first-up runs. Trialled prior to this and looks set for another bold first-up showing.
