Riccarton Race 4 - CUP WEEK TICKETS ON SALE - 1 SEPTEMBER THREE-YEAR-OLD
ZAFAR (1) made a winning debut as a juvenile here in the Champagne Stakes before being put aside immediately to mature. He will have a few big targets ahead of him this spring and from a good draw, he will take plenty of beating fresh up in this. FINAL TIME (3) finished not far behind the top pick in the same race before also going out for a spell. She will eventually be looking for more ground, but is still expected to sprint well fresh. DOUBTABLE (4) will have a fitness edge over the top 2 picks, and she is still at the learning stage of her career. She handles it wet, and can't be overlooked. ENCHANTMENT (2) is a stablemate of the top pick resuming from a spell with a recent trial under her belt. The pole position can be an advantage, so keep her safe. GLAMOUR EXTREME (5) was an upset winner at Oamaru on debut nearly 6 weeks ago, and got the job done stylishly. She is worthy of respect again.

Returns from a spell. Ran fifth in a trial at Phar Lap Racecourse. Opened last campaign with a second at this track over 1000m. Has been in the money at every first-up run. Capable of a bold return.
