Trots ATX Winton - NZ

1-9 Ascot Park Raceway 02Apr26 2200MS $10,423 R37 TO R40 Mark Hurrell $4, won by 2nd Captain Amore , 1:59.5 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Lay in over the concluding stages having to be straightened by driver M Hurrell.

Saluted over 2200m at Ascot Park Raceway most recently after a plain effort at this track the start prior. Winning claims.

3-11 Central Southland Raceway 26Mar26 1609MS $10,808 R36 TO R45 4U Wilson House $2, btn 8.4m, wnr Captain Amore , 1:54.0 (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 1609m at this track, beaten 8 metres. One of the primary contenders.

1-7 Ascot Park Raceway 02Apr26 2200SS $10,038 R35 TO R40 Mark Hurrell $12, won by 2nd Rise Up N Dance , 2:00.2 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Tangled away.

Didn't perform two runs ago at this track but returned to form last time when a winner by 6 metres over 2200m at Ascot Park Raceway. Might find this beyond her.

4-9 Ascot Park Raceway 02Apr26 2200MS $10,423 R37 TO R40 Samantha Ottley $16, btn 3.0m, wnr Always B Royal , 1:59.5 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Was not a factor two runs back then again missed the placings last start but was only beaten 3 metres when fourth at Ascot Park Raceway over 2200m. This will fully test.

5-9 Ascot Park Raceway 02Apr26 2200MS $10,423 R37 TO R40 Hayden Douglas $30, btn 6.5m, wnr Always B Royal , 1:59.5 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Held up final bend and throughout the run home.

Comes here off a last-start fifth over 2200m at Ascot Park Raceway, beaten 6 metres. Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.

8-11 Central Southland Raceway 26Mar26 1609MS $10,808 R36 TO R45 4U Alex Milne $63, btn 21.1m, wnr Captain Amore , 1:54.0 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Out of position at the start.

Scored a fine win at Wingatui two runs ago then couldn't follow it up over 1609m at this track last time, finishing 21 metres away from the winner. Will find this tough.

9-9 Ascot Park Raceway 02Apr26 2200MS $10,423 R37 TO R40 Wilson House $4, btn 13.0m, wnr Always B Royal , 1:59.5 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a) Weakened over the concluding stages.

Was ordinary when 13 metres away in ninth most recently at her first run back from a layoff over 2200m at Ascot Park Raceway. Will come on from that run and is a strong top-three hope.

2-8 Wyndham Raceway 29Mar26 2400MS $13,950 R39 TO R43 3U Mark Hurrell $56, btn 6.8m, wnr Seeking Clarity , 1:58.9 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Made significant improvement last start when second at Wyndham Raceway over 2400m, beaten 6 metres. One of the key runners.

Improved sharply last start to return winning form by 45 metres over 2200m at Ascot Park Raceway. Awkward draw but in-form and expected to go well again.

3-3 Oamaru 07Apr26 2000SS Trail btn 2.2m, wnr CARBONATE , (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)

Just missed last start over 2600m at Phar Lap Raceway when second, beaten 0.8 metres. Bright prospects again.

Scored at this track two starts back then finished second at Ascot Park Raceway last time over 2200m, finishing half a metre from the winner. Hard to enthuse in this field.

8-10 Ashburton Raceway 25Mar26 2400SS $9,650 R35 TO R43 5U John Morrison $3, btn 20.8m, wnr Super Fund , 2:02.1 (n/a,n/a,n/a,n/a)
