NZB RTR 3YO

Prize Money: $36,364

PASSIFLORA (5) impressed with a strong front-running debut win over 970m at Cambridge on the poly track there three-and-a-half weeks ago. She has a superior draw this time and can repeat the dose. BELZONI (1) finished a game this fresh up over 1200m at Otaki 4 weeks ago and has been close up in a trial at Foxton since then. He has plenty of scope and should continue to improve throughout the rest of the year. Each way. WYNDSTORM (3) struggled when resuming in the LR Colin Meads Trophy at Ellerslie over 1200m, finishing near the rear, but he was not disgraced in that strong field. Winkers are added this time, and he is expected to finish a lot closer in this field. LA CADIERE (6) showed marked improvement at her second outing, finishing not far off the winner in fifth over 970m at Cambridge on the poly track. She's fitter now and worth consideration for all combinations. WAR PRINCESS (4) won a trial prior to finishing midfield in the Whanganui Guineas. Stick with her. Include.

Second run back. First-up after four months came home strongly from last on the turn and won by 1.5 len at New Plymouth Raceway September 13 over 1200m in the wet defeating Luminance carrying 55kg at $12.70. Previously second-up ran last of 9 at Te Rapa on May 24 over 1100m, on a slow track; 11 len behind Geneva with 57kg at $39.70. Must be respected after a good win fresh up.
