Awapuni Synthetic Race 3 - HOULT CONTRACTORS & CROWLEY FORGE MASTER FARRIERS LTD 1200

VIGOR HAPPINESS (1) showed promise earlier in his career and has needed time to mature. He has changed stables since his last start in the middle of February and will be ready to run a big race after having 3 good tune-up trials. A 3kg claim and the pole position make him hard to beat. GOOD CRAIC (3) has been trying to win a race for a long time, and a good draw should make his job a touch easier in this. Include in all combinations. NIEMI (5) was put aside after finishing fourth on debut at Waverley in April. She was close up in a recent trial, and with the aid of a 2kg claim, she won't be far away in a small field. HOLY HECKA (6) is making her debut in a very modest field. Let the market be your best guide. CHART THE STARS (4) resumes from a spell, and can only improve on her debut effort for eighth.

Back from a long spell. Finished off last campaign second last of 7 at New Plymouth Raceway Mdn-Sw on February 14 over 1200m, slow going 9 len behind Hana Man carrying 58kg at $2.70. When resuming last campaign 3rd of 8 at Cambridge Synthetic on August 8 2024 over 970m, 0.6 len behind Tomoe Gozen with 56kg at $2.20. Won a Waverley trial over 800m on September 3. Looks forward enough after a recent trial win. Everything points to a bright return.

Dual acceptor. Most recently 3rd in a small field at this track on August 24 over 1200m, 4.5 len behind Toronto carrying 54.5kg at $13.70. The run before that 5th of 7 at this track on August 3 over 1000m, 4 len behind Platinum Designs with 54kg at $13.70. Made headway last time. Capable of giving a great sight.
