Trentham Race 1 - LADIES MAN 2YO 1200
BELZONI (1) is the only winner in this juvenile field. He can prove too good once again. COUNTRY SALON (3) made an encouraging debut last time out, finishing fifth over 1100m at Waverley. Better drawn. Can pay a dividend in this field. OUR SNIPER (2) was prominent at the corner and finished third last time over 1200m at Wanganui. He has been placed third in all of his starts. Chance here on dry or wet ground. UNDER ORDERS (6) made an encouraging debut last time out, finishing fifth over 1200m at Wanganui. Is an improver. Drawn poorly. Same yard as the top pick. DANCING SHADOW (4) is a gelding from Dancing Light on debut. Three trials for two seconds and a fifth. Dam left two multiple winning foals with Show Me Champagne (5 wins) most prolific. Well drawn.

First-starter by Sneaking To Win out of A Little Luck. Not seen on the trial track yet so hard to assess. Well drawn in this. Keep an eye on the tote quote.

First-starter by Ace High out of Aphrodite. Not seen on the trial track yet so hard to assess. Dam has left Caracas (1 win). Her opening price is the best guide.

First starter. Two-year-old filly by Almanzor out of Our Kismet. She ran fourth in her only trial so far. Dam has left two multiple race winning foals with Handsome Boy (4 wins) the most prolific. Awkward draw.

Filly by So You Think facing the starter for the first time. Has run second in both of her trials. Drawn out here but sure to have some backing in this.
