Wingatui Race 1 - NELLIES RESTAURANT & BAR
COOL AZA RENE (1) resumes after break of five-and-a-half months. Won on debut to launch the last campaign over 800m at Otaki. Placed in a recent trial. Should be winning this. OPTIONS OPEN (10) is a two-year-old filly on debut from stable of Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson. By Darci Brahma from Optimiser. She has had three trials prior to her debut today and placed in all of them. Dam has left Richard Stomper (4 wins). Promising type who can make an immediate impact. ETERNAL LIGHT (5) is a well bred two-year-old filly lining up for the first time. Looked good in a recent trial win. Inside barrier will assist. Dam has left five winning foals with Eternal Flame (5 wins) the most prolific. Looks set for a bright start to her career. BETTER SHARED (6) is an improver on last start. Better drawn in this. EL VAQUERO (2) was well-supported at debut when 8th of 12 at Riverton on April 19 over 1100m, on a wet track; 12 len behind Four The Moment with 54kg at $3.30. Won two trials prior. Wide draw.

At very big odds at debut, sat behind speed prior to fading 9th of 14 at Riccarton Park on March 22 over 1000m, slow going 10 len behind Zelia carrying 53kg at $91.40. Second-up crossed from a wide gate to lead but couldn't hold on when 6th of 12 at Riverton on April 19 over 1100m, on rain affected going; 3.5 len behind Four The Moment carrying 52kg at $7.20. Improver on last start. Better drawn in this.

Two-year-old filly (El Doute - Ajay Tee). She has three trials leading in today's debut for a third and a fourth. Many in this are stronger prospects.

First-starter by Time Test out of You Little Ripa. Not seen on the trial track yet so hard to assess. The betting is the best pointer to her chances.
