Cromwell Race 1 - Central Otago Motor Group Trot
ISOBEL (6) is a three-year-old filly by Majestic Son from Dame Margot Fonteyn on debut. Likely to attract plenty of interest from punters. MASS DISRUPTION (4) ran fourth after making an early error last start at this track over 1800m. Expect him to pose a serious challenge with that experience under his belt. JAY BEE HILL (3) is heading the right way, improving last time out to finish second at this track over 1800m. Genuine threat. DONT LOOK KOBE (7) is at the track for the first time. By Majestic Son and hails from the Brad Williamson stable. The driver has some work to do from this wide starting position. Likely to attract plenty of interest from punters after producing some good trial form.
