Te Rapa Race 2 - DIRECT FATS & OILS 1200
REQUISITE (1) has been more genuine since being tried in front, and he is also getting stronger with each run. He has a good gate, and with 200m less to travel this time, he will be hard to peg back. MULBERRY GROVE (2) has looked very good at the trials, and has won the latest of those at Tauranga last month. He cops a tricky gate, but meets no world beaters here, and he can make a winning debut. SILKY SHUBA (8) ran some good races last prep, and her recent short spell would have done her the world of good. She won a Tauranga trial last month, and she will be ready to rumble fresh. TOPSY TURVY (10) only battled on debut after some good trial form. She has the pole position, and Craig Grylls keeps the faith. Follow any positive market moves.

Drops in trip from the latest effort when third over 1400m at Pukekohe, finishing 2.75 lengths off the winner. Terrific chance to find winning form.

Lines up for the first time since November 11. Failed to impress in two appearances last time in work, the latest effort a tenth over 1400m at Te Aroha. Might need a run or two.
