NUM	TIME	COMMENT
1	10:55	MATAMATA FUNCTION CENTRE 2000m The race pace in this Maiden event around two turns does not look too bad for the first half of the race but many will be gone well before the home turn. TALENTOSO (6) he has gone well in four of five starts (last two runs came here) and lost his rider the other time. Ready to win no matter the footing on offer today. CHINOOK (3) has run one placing and been five times fourth so his record is far better than it seems at a glance. Top tier must in this. WRY SMILE (9) has been not too bad in two of his three runs. Ace gate today so can pay a dividend or be first four. KEEPZ OCCURRING (5) has been twice placed. Has run two good fourths here. Include. JUST A KARIN (12) she has been three times placed and two of them have come here. Cannot be excluded. SUGGESTED PLAY: Talentoso and Chinook are win wagers.
2	11:27	REMEMBERING DAVE "DJ" O'SULLIVAN 1200m The pace here in this Maiden 3yo event over 1200m looks not too bad at all. AKENEHI (8) has not gone a bad race lifetime. Trial second late last month. One to beat here on dry or wet ground drawn okay. THUNDERHILL (2) twice placed but has not run a bad race lifetime. Top tier must here on dry or wet footing. BELLA VOCE (9) has run well in both starts before being spelled. Trial fourth last month so ready to go. Drawn to be a win chance here at home. ONE MORE DANCE (11) was a good run at first start for third. Trained left-handed so very much suited here. A 3kg claim will help her cause too. NOT STRAIGHT LACED (10) ran well in first two starts and both came here. Improver fresh up. Include in your multiples. SUGGESTED PLAY: Akenehi is a win wager.
