Phar Lap Raceway Race 3 - PINK RIBBON & HEARTLAND CHIPS 1200
LOOSE 'N' VEGAS (4) came close to breaking her maiden last campaign as a juvenile, wrapping it up with a minor placing over 1000m in a decent field at Riccarton before having a well-earned three-and-a-half-month break. She will be stronger this season and can take this out fresh up. ETERNAL LIGHT (3) is a promising maiden who finished sixth in her last outing over 1200m in the Listed Canterbury Belle Stakes at Riccarton after missing the kick. She cops a tough gate, but can figure in the top 3 at this level. OCEAN BAY (14) will make her debut, and is a filly by Vanbrugh out of Ysabella Brave, and she was close up in a recent Ashburton trial. She is nicely placed after a 2kg claim and is sure to have plenty of market support. RISK MITIGATION (5) improved last start, finishing fourth and beaten by 2 lengths over 1200m at this track. A firmer surface would do her no harm, and she should not be in this grade for long. TEST DRIVE (9) has trialled twice, and won't be far away. Include.

Three-year-old gelding (Time Test - Tiebreaker) who was bought for NZD $ 20,000 (NZB 2024 Karaka - Book 2). He has three recent trials prior to his debut today. Finished fourth in a Foxton trial over 1000m on September 16. Profiles well and a bold run is expected.
