Rotorua Race 1 - MACMILLAN ACCOUNTANTS 1215
LITTERAL (5) has improved this prep and is knocking on the door for her first win after back-to-back second-place finishes, including her last start on this course. Having the pole position early in the day won't be an issue, and she can go one better in a very modest field. ZERRE (6) showed a lot of pace fresh up at Te Aroha nearly 4 weeks ago and fought on gamely to finish third. She has a senior hoop on this time, and could be hard to peg back again. JELLY ROLL (1) made up some late ground when finishing fourth in the same race as the top pick. He has the side winkers on for the first time, and can figure in the top 3 this time. SNOOKI (8) won a trial before failing to fire on debut at Taupo on a heavy track. She will be a lot stronger this year and will be ready to rumble fresh up off the back of 3 tune-up trials. Watch closely. MY FAITH (2) ran on too late at Cambridge over 970m on the poly track last time out. He is better placed in this, and can run into the money this time.

Last start settled back and ran on when 6th of 10 at Cambridge Synthetic on July 10 over 970m, 2.75 len behind Agile carrying 54.5kg at $7.50. Before that didn't do much in the run home; second last of 10 at this track on July 2 over 1230m, in the wet; 29 len behind Sweetazme with 54.5kg at $10.80. Can improve and should figure in the finish.

Facing the starter for the first time. Three-year-old gelding by Belardo out of Trennery. At the most recent trial finished eighth at Ellerslie over 1100m. Wait and see what he can do.

Most recently made ground from midfield; 2nd of 10 at this track on July 2 over 1230m, on heavy track; 5 len behind Sweetazme with 56.5kg at $1.70. The race before that 2nd of 11 at Matamata on June 15 over 1200m, on a wet track; 1.0 len behind Elle McFab carrying 56.5kg at $4.90. Should be nice and fit fourth up and can get the win here.
