Gelding by Impending on debut. Trial form indicates he's up to a solid debut. Won a Te Rapa trial over 1100m on September 23. Can make an immediate impact.

Most recently raced on the pace when 3rd of 8 at Hawera on March 25 over 1400m, 3 len behind What Next carrying 57.5kg at $5.80. The run before that didn't do much in the run home; 6th of 12 at Tauherenikau on March 5 over 1600m, on a slow track; 7 len behind Shoebill carrying 57.5kg at $2.60. Worth including.

Second-up. First-up after five months 2nd of 8 at Te Aroha on March 28 over 1150m, on heavy track; 1.5 len behind Wine Rocs with 58kg at $21.10. Previously second-up 5th of 11 at Kembla Grange Cge Mdn-Sw on August 30 over 1200m, slow going 3 len behind Ruination carrying 56.5kg at $51. One of the main contenders.

Resuming. Finished off last preparation second last of 13 at Ellerslie in the LR Gingernuts January 11 over 2100m, 5.5 len behind Ammirati carrying 57kg at $40.20. On debut third of 12 at Tauranga October 1 over 1400m, soft track; 3.5 len behind Reckoning with 56kg at $11.50. Looks forward enough after a recent trial win. Everything points to a bright return.

Three-year-old gelding (Almanzor - Seductive D'oro). Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson has him primed for this with four recent trials leading in today's debut. Ran 3rd in an Avondale trial over 1000m on March 24. Expected to run well.

Three-year-old gelding making debut by Super Easy out of Stole. Was second in a Te Awamutu barrier trial over 1150m October 9. Well worth keeping safe first time out.

Dual acceptor. Most recently second last of 8 at Hawera on March 25 over 1200m, 13 len behind Marie Antoinette with 56.5kg at $15.50. The start before that raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 5th of 13 at Te Aroha on March 6 over 1600m, on a slow track; 4 len behind Ballbeena with 55.5kg at $50.50. Win doesn’t look likely.

First starter by Puccini out of Court Mistress. Has a total of two trials prior to her debut today. Unlikely to find enough improvement to trouble these.

Third race start. First start 7th of 9 at Te Aroha on October 22 over 1150m, slow going 7 len behind Avantaggia with 55.5kg at $22.90. Returned from break raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 11 at Pukekohe on April 1 over 1400m, in the wet; 4 len behind Ocean Rules with 53.5kg at $6.80. Sure to run well.

At debut, 4th of 10 at this track on March 22 over 1200m, slow going 5 len behind Rioja with 56kg at $7.90. Shows talent and will go well again.

Racing first-up today. Finished off last preparation eighth of 13 at Trentham in the G2 Lowland Stks January 31 over 2100m, 9 len behind Ultimate Habit with 56.5kg at $65. On debut sixth of 13 at Tauranga November 1 over 1400m, soft track; 4 len behind Happy Venture with 55kg at $18.30. Top hope.

Facing the starter for the first time. Three-year-old filly by Shamexpress out of Valencia's Image. At the most recent trial finished fifth at Taupo over 1300m. Capable of a solid performance.

Resuming. Finished off last campaign ran last of 14 at Waverley on January 28 over 1400m, slow going 11 len behind Tomahawk carrying 54.5kg at $13.50. First up last campaign 9th of 13 at Avondale 3yo Mdn-Sw on October 8 over 1400m, on heavy track; 5 len behind Kygo Star with 55.5kg at $46.60. Trialled on March 24 at Avondale over 1000m and finished eighth. Expecting a bright return.

First starter by Reliable Man out of Annamosa. Has a total of four trials leading in today's debut. Wait and see her under race conditions.

Dual acceptor. Was at long odds at debut, second last of 10 at Pukekohe on April 1 over 1200m, on a wet track; 9 len behind Deep Pursuit carrying 56.5kg at $45.10. Better for that experience but others look better placed.

Dual acceptor. Last start second last of 9 at Pukekohe on April 1 over 1400m, on a wet track; 14 len behind Starclan with 58.5kg at $47.70. The start before that eased back early on 6th of 11 at Te Aroha on March 6 over 1150m, slow going 4.5 len behind Arwen carrying 58.5kg at $65. Rates poorly so happy to overlook.

Dual acceptor. Second-up. First-up after two months failed to make an impression; ran last of 16 at Ellerslie on April 4 over 1600m, on a slow track; 18 len behind Solid Gold carrying 56.5kg at $70.90. Previously second-up ran last of 9 at Te Aroha on November 26 over 2200m, 17 len behind Khando with 56.5kg at $12. Looking elsewhere.
