Te Aroha Race 4 - THAMES VALLEY INSURANCE LTD 3YO 1150
PILATES (9) looks ready to start her career off on a winning note after winning both of her public trials, the latest by 3 lengths. The key here is Rory Hutchings wasting down to 55.5kg, a weight he rarely rides at. On top for us. ZAMBROSIA (10) is a stablemate of the top pick who had 5 trials last year, winning the first of those in March. She cops a tricky gate, but would not be here if her stable did not think she could run a big race. Each way. KUSUDA RUSH (2) was put aside after a couple of handy efforts last spring, and his freshen up would have done him no harm. He won't be a maiden for much longer. CURZON PARK (1) is a consistent maiden gelding who led up and then faded late at Tauranga 7 weeks ago. He cops a wide gate, but is more than capable of another top 4 finish. FLASHBACK (4) has won all 3 of his public trials, and he also hails from the top Stephen March stable. Only a wide draw is against him, so follow any market leads.

Has only raced once which was four months ago over 1200m at Ruakaka when beaten 8 lengths into tenth. Went for a spell after that outing and returns as a gelding. Looks tested at this stage.

Dual acceptor. Was in the money on debut two starts back at this track but followed up with a moderate performance when fifth over 1150m at this track last time. Can do much better this time.

Reliable Man filly from Entirely Saintly on debut. Ran fifth at recent trial. Wait and see what she can do.
