Otaki Race 3 - LEVIN JUMPOUTS TWO YEAR OLD
MIDNIGHT DART (1) was a slight upset debut winner at Trentham just over 6 weeks ago on a heavy track, but did have to work in the running, so he deserved his victory. He will have no trouble with the step up from 800m to 1100m, and there is no reason why he can't repeat the dose. BUTLER CABIN (2) did a few things wrong in his last trial when he failed to load into the barrier, but did win at his first public appearance in August. He has a good draw, and his stable is in hot form at the moment. Hard to beat. KA RON (3) makes his debut from the astute Allan Sharrock stable, and he has been getting experience at the jumpouts held on his home track. He will be ready to rumble in this. KINNAIRD (4) is a well-bred colt making his debut from the leading Walker/Bergerson stable. He has a good draw, and Craig Grylls picks up the ride. Watch closely. Can win. TIFOSI (6) was third on debut at Tauherenikau, and she will naturally improve from that run. She has the pole position advantage, and she can figure in the top 3 again.

Freshened since getting off the mark on debut; won by 0.8 len at Trentham October 18 over 800m in heavy going defeating Rupeni carrying 57kg at $8.70. Has upside and can make it back-to-back wins.

Gelding by Ardrossan facing the starter for the first time. Attempted to Trial on September 16 at Foxton over 850m but failed to load into the barriers. Makes debut on home track, has a low draw and can open his account straight away.

Colt by Home Affairs facing the starter for the first time. Has looked handy in two trials leading into this. Ran 3rd in an Avondale trial over 800m on November 14. Watch for any market confidence.

Lining up for just third start. At debut, 2nd in a small field at Riccarton Park on October 25 over 800m, 1.0 len behind Out Of The Blue with 54kg at $12.40. Last start 5th of 8 at Riccarton Park on November 12 over 1000m, on a slow track; 2 len behind I Am Belle carrying 55kg at $4.90. Rates highly and is in the mix.

Was well-supported at debut, 3rd in a small field at Tauherenikau on November 9 over 1000m, slow going 3 len behind Lassified with 55kg at $3.60. Will be there at the business end.

Was well-supported at debut, ran last in a small field at Trentham on October 26 over 900m, slow going 7 len behind Silhouette carrying 55kg at $3.40. Better for that hit-out and likely to be highly competitive again.
