Ashburton Race 8 - TINWALD TAVERN MBL PACE
ZETA JONES (7) is at the track for the first time. By Downbytheseaside and hails from the Hayden & Amanda Cullen stable. The driver has some work to do from this wide starting position. Looks to have some ability based on a recent trial win. Makes plenty of appeal. LOLLOBRIGIDA (2) must be considered after she finished third over 1900m at Kaikoura a week-and-a-half ago. ALLUSIVE (3) makes her debut run and from a good draw should get a soft trip in the running. Each-way claims. ENDLESS LOVE (4) is a filly by Terror To Love who is on debut and from a handy draw can surprise.
