7-13 Ashburton Raceway 11May25 2400SS $11,193 WITH COND. Brent Borcoskie $51, btn 17.6m, wnr Very Majestic , 2:04.4 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Raced wide early and middle stages.

Safely held last time when 17 metres from the winner in seventh over 2400m at this track. This looks a far sterner task.

1-5 Addington 14May25 1980MS $10,530 NON-WINNERS 3U Jason Thomas $10, won by 2nd Viva La Vida , 2:03.7 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Raced greenly and trotted roughly near the 1400m with the gelding shifting up the track. Again raced greenly and shifted up the track in the run home.

Second-up after winning at his first run of the campaign, scoring by 9 metres over 1980m at Addington. Can play a role in the finish.

1-11 Ascot Park Raceway 18May25 2200SS $11,790 NON-WINNERS 3U Nathan Williamson $3, won by 2nd Shakedown , 2:09.5 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Terrific effort on debut last start to score at Ascot Park Raceway over 2200m by 5.5 metres. Likely improver from a low draw.

9-9 Phar Lap Raceway 25May25 2600SS $10,423 R35 TO R42 3U Tim Williams $24, btn 185.8m, wnr Crown The Moment , 2:06.8 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Broke at the start losing ground. Broke again near the 1100m hampering a trailing runner losing all chance.

Form only moderate and has been without a win now for 11 runs. Last start finished ninth over 2600m at Phar Lap Raceway. This will be too tough.

8-8 Rangiora 18May25 2000MS $11,160 R41 TO R50 3U Sam Thornley $10, btn 32.9m, wnr Pyramid Rose , 2:02.5 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Has been outside the top three recently, last time out finishing eighth over 2000m at Rangiora. Can improve sharply.

3-8 Rangiora 18May25 2000MS $11,160 R35 TO R40 3U John Morrison $3, btn 5.7m, wnr Brian Beatt , 2:04.5 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Racing well without winning, making it two minor placings in a row last start when third over 2000m at Rangiora, beaten 5.5 metres. Sure to play a major role.

3-13 Ashburton Raceway 11May25 2400SS $11,193 WITH COND. Samantha Ottley $18, btn 4.6m, wnr Very Majestic , 2:04.4 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Lay inwards and trotted roughly through the middle stages.

Finished third over 2400m at this track last start after he was easily accounted for two runs ago at Addington. Prefer others on this occasion.

9-13 Ashburton Raceway 11May25 2400SS $11,193 WITH COND. Olivia Thornley $20, btn 21.1m, wnr Very Majestic , 2:04.4 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Trotted roughly in the run home having to be steadied by driver O Thornley.

Missed the placings again last start, beaten 21 metres when ninth over 2400m at this track. Must do a lot more.

8-13 Ashburton Raceway 11May25 2400SS $11,193 WITH COND. Tim Williams $31, btn 18.9m, wnr Very Majestic , 2:04.4 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Was ordinary when 18 metres away in eighth most recently at her first run back from a layoff over 2400m at this track. Expect to see a much better run.

4-9 Phar Lap Raceway 25May25 2600SS $10,423 R35 TO R42 3U Jim Curtin $14, btn 23.2m, wnr Crown The Moment , 2:06.8 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Finished runner-up two starts back at Rangiora then missed the frame last start over 2600m at Phar Lap Raceway. Prefer others on this occasion.

7-12 Addington 21Apr25 2000SS $12,000 R40 TO R50 JUN.DRV 4U H J Orange $3, btn 22.1m, wnr Royal Del , 2:04.3 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Raced wide early.

Chalked-up a fine win at Mt Harding two starts ago then couldn't follow it up over 2000m at Addington last time, finishing 22 metres away from the winner. Ready to make amends.

6-8 Rangiora 18May25 2000MS $11,160 R41 TO R50 3U Robbie Holmes $29, btn 22.7m, wnr Pyramid Rose , 2:02.5 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Continued some plain form when a poor sixth at Rangiora over 2000m two weeks ago. Form not up to scratch.

5-13 Ashburton Raceway 11May25 2400SS $11,193 WITH COND. Matthew Williamson $8, btn 11.9m, wnr Very Majestic , 2:04.4 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Found winning form three back but the last couple of runs have been less impressive, the latest when beaten 11 metres into fifth at this track. Can improve enough to feature.

1-14 Phar Lap Raceway 25May25 2600SS $12,420 NON-WINNERS 3U Sam Thornley $16, won by 2nd Kd Grins , 2:09.7 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Hampered by a breaking runner after 150m.

Was a dominant 9 metres winner at Phar Lap Raceway over 2600m last start. Racing well and rates highly on the latest effort.

2-7 Central Southland Raceway 22May25 2400SS $10,038 WITH COND. Nathan Williamson $3, btn 1.4m, wnr Sheila Laxon , 2:05.8 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Has been racing well with a couple of minor prizes to her name recently, the latest when runner-up, beaten 1.4 metres, over 2400m at Central Southland Raceway. Can maintain the solid form.
