Te Aroha Race 8

MARSH RACING

Prize Money: $22,727

CEASE AND DESIST (3) capped off some improving form with a tough win by a head at Matamata nearly 3 weeks ago. He has the breeding to continue to improve with more time, and Opie Bosson keeps the faith. Go again. EVER CHARM (6) flashed home late, fresh up for third, and then ran on too late again when finishing fifth at Tauranga nearly 5 weeks ago. He gets a superior gate for his peak run, and he will be among the hardest to beat in this. MIDORI BURLY (15) has needed both of his starts since relocating from Hong Kong after a long spell earlier in the season. He will relish getting out to a mile, and from a good gate, he cannot be taken lightly. Each-way value. LERADO (2) was out of the money, but not far off the winner at Ellerslie 11 days ago. He is not out of this at odds.

Hasn't struck a blow in two runs since a spell, the latest when beaten 3 lengths into sixth over 1500m at Tauranga. Likely improver who definitely worth including.

Finding it hard to break through, finishing fifth last time out over 1600m at Tauranga. Finds a nice race and can improve without surprising.

Not the most reliable conveyance. Moderate effort last time when 10 lengths from the winner in seventh over 1600m at New Plymouth Raceway. Rates highly on best efforts and is among the chances.

Yet to fill a placing in two runs since resuming from a spell, the latest effort a seventh over 1400m at Te Rapa a week-and-a-half ago. Likely to find this out of reach.
