Otaki Race 2 - LEVIN THOROUGHBRED BREEDERS FORUM MAIDEN
SOL DE OTONO (6) probably should have won a race by now, and she will be resuming here from a spell that would have done her the world of good. 1200m will be short of her best, but she has not had a public trial, and if the gaps come at the right time, she can have the last say. TOO DARN SWEET (9) has only missed out once in 3 starts, and that was in G2 company. She has the pace to lead this field from the pole position, and she can take them all the way this time. PRECIPICE (2) was put aside after a promising 3-start initial campaign further North. He was close up in a quiet Taupo trial late last month, and he will be on target to give this field a decent shake fresh up. HOORAH HENRY (1) may have found 1400m a touch too far at Waverley last start. He drops back to 1200m and is expected to bounce straight back into the money here. KODIAC BEAR (5) tried hard when leading up and finishing second on debut at Woodville 4 weeks ago. He has the scope to win a race at short notice.

Raced twice to date. At debut, ran last of 9 at New Plymouth Raceway on September 13 over 990m, in the wet; 13 len behind Our Time Keeper with 55.5kg at $15.50. Second-up 6th of 12 at New Plymouth Raceway on November 5 over 1200m, 5.5 len behind Ashoka with 58.5kg at $14. Wide barrier a hindrance so happy to look elsewhere.
