Taupo Race 3 - REMEMBERING DAVID TREWAVAS (LIFE MEMBER AND TAUPO MAYOR)
NANESSE (5) made ground from the rear for 2L 3rd of 7 on debut back in April. Began well and led with company by 5L and extended with ears pricked for a bold trial win October 22. Take beating after super trial. IN TOO DEEP (9) has had two trials for two wins. Began well and worked to the lead, ambled into the straight but responded when asked and ran away last time October 6th. Big danger from the sweet draw. MARK HIM DOWN (2) has placed in 3 of his 4 trials and won the other. Led early and chased gamely behind subsequent stylish winner I Promise in his latest trial in early October. Respect here. STANZA (3) scored a nice trail win when very professional last month then led with company, kicked turn but ran around and was grabbed on the post on debut. Respect if starting here rather than R2. FIESTA (6) on a trial well before sitting outside the leader and wilting in the straight for 3L 5th 1st-up at Te Aroha. Consider here.

Unraced 3yo gelding who has trialled four times. Was impressive when winning trial on May 26 at Te Awamutu over 850m. Looks all set to run well.

Dual acceptor. Debuted at Te Aroha two weeks ago and turned in a handy run when 0.1 lengths away in second over 1150m. Rates highly and can break through.

Dual acceptor. Faced the starter for the first time last start and did a good job to finish third over 1100m at this track. Should come on following that experience and another big run looks on the cards.

Returned from a layoff last start and was beaten 3 lengths into fifth over 1150m at Te Aroha. Rates highly and should do much better.

Dual acceptor. Fair effort last start, beaten 2.25 lengths into fourth over 1100m at this track. Likely to hold the good form and play a major role again.

Talented three-year-old filly with two wins from two trials, most recently at Matamata over 1000m. Ready to run a big race. Leading chance.
