Te Aroha Race 6 - CANTER 4 CANCER
FRACAS (1) finished six lengths back in fourth over 1200m at Waverley eight weeks ago, after being in contention at the turn. Steps up in distance today and in this field, he should go close to taking it out. BLUERIDGE (2), a five-year-old gelding by Eminent out of Sacred Country, debuts for the astute Kevin Myers stable, and he has had recent trial experience. Hard to beat, especially if he is well-supported in the market. KERBLINE (3) was last seen finishing seventh over 1800m at New Plymouth Raceway on December 5 and has since joined the Denise Jeffcoat stable. A solid top-three chance in a field that lacks any depth at all. TICK TICK BOOM (7) is a well-bred three-year-old filly by Circus Maximus out of Chita Rivera, who has produced notable progeny, including black-type winners. Although unplaced in her latest trial at Avondale, she has found the right race to make her debut. Use the market as the best guide. LITTLE DARLING (6) has a rough chance from the pole position.

At the latest run couldn't go on with it; ran last of 7 at Matamata on September 12 over 1600m, on rain affected going; 38 len behind Sonoran carrying 58.5kg at $62.10. The race before that ran last of 10 at Ruakaka on September 3 over 1600m, on a slow track; 36 len behind Vegas Lights carrying 58.5kg at $34.50. Unlikely to threaten.

Was at big odds at debut, second last in a small field at Woodville on September 7 over 1200m, on a wet track; 7 len behind Brady with 54kg at $31.70. Doubt she will trouble these.
