Mt Harding Race 2 - Clubs Nz Supporting Communities In Nz Mbl Trot

VESTA (7) ran second last start at Waterlea over 1850m, beaten 2.25 metres. Must overcome a very wide draw. This looks a sterner test than last time but she is capable of playing a significant role. ULTIMATE RUSH (9) finished second last start over 2000m at Oamaru Raceway, beaten 3.5 metres, after scoring at the previous appearance over 2050m at Phar Lap Raceway. Tactics will be crucial from this wide draw. Meets a similar line up and she can figure in the finish. UNICO TESSA (1) disappointed last time when seventh over 1700m at Ashburton Raceway. Can atone. MOONLITE (8) is the best of the rest after finishing fifth over 2450m at Reefton last time out.

Recent efforts have been modest. Last start 7th (Fr8) over 1700m at Ashburton Raceway beaten 11 m by Disney Denario (2:02.10) in 3yo+ FM on January 14 at $11.50. The run prior 6th (Fr6) over 2000m at Motukarara beaten 5 m by Bad Habits (2:37.40) in 3yo+ on December 29 at $6.60. Better than the latest run and from a low draw gets her chance to bounce back.

Five-year-old gelding (Well Said - Jaz Tanner) making his debut. Not keen at this stage.
