New Plymouth Raceway Race 7

KIM DUNLOP ROBERTS – HEALTH INSURANCE

Prize Money: $22,727

TAYLOR SQUARE (3) stepped up to a middle distance for the first time last start at Ellerslie in the Listed Gingernuts Salver and was a game sixth, less than 2 lengths from the winner. He will find R65 grade more to his liking, and on his last run, he should be the one to beat in this. On top. KIRRAWEE (10) will be peaking third up from a spell after a couple of modest runs up North. He will relish the extra 400m here, and more importantly, he will have Craig Grylls in the irons this time. Each way value. SURROUND SOUND (2) was a tough Whanganui in his penultimate start, and then was a game fifth in tougher company at Trentham nearly a fortnight ago. Stick with him at this level. OVERDRAFT (1) can mix his form, but he is in the right race here, and his recent freshen up would have done him no harm. Include in all top 4 combos.

Has been in work for quite a while. Came from a wide gate and could only manage to finish ninth last time out over 2200m at Trentham. Draws a better marble this time. Has sound top 4 claims.

In the money two starts back at this track but couldn't back that up when unplaced over 1650m at Waverley last time. Not keen on her chances.
