G1 – 2400m – Turf

1

That’s Gold

Potential star who sprinted clear to win the G2 Avondale Guineas (2100m) by 3.71L to make it two wins in a row. He’s the hardest to beat.

2

Aksil

Over-raced early and was found to have suffered heat stress when 5.73L 6th to That’s Gold in the G2 Avondale Guineas (2100m). Needs to improve.

3

Road To Paris

He’s racing well with second placings at his past two starts. He finished on strongly for 3.71L 2nd to That’s Gold in the G2 Avondale Guineas (2100m) last start. Each-way.

4

Towering Vision

He’s better than last start last placing behind That’s Gold over 2100m when he was favourite. Go on 0.5L 2nd in the G2 Waikato Guineas (2000m) at prior start.

5

Geneva

He followed Matamata win in a BM65 over 1600m on 23 January with a 4.14L 6th to Autumn Glory in the G2 Waikato Guineas (2000m). Place claims.

6

Yamato Satona

Always well back when 6.29L 8th to That’s Gold in the G2 Avondale Guineas over 2100m last start. Go on 0.84L 3rd in G2 Waikato Guineas (2000m) before that. Rough chance.

7

Magic Carpet

G2 winner last September who has struggled in both runs this time in. The latest was when he finished 8.06L 10th to That’s Gold in the G2 Avondale Guineas (2100m).

8

Tulsa King

Two starts ago he finished 2nd over 2100m in a Listed race at Ellerslie before 2L 4th over 2100m at Waipukurau. Extra distance should suit.

9

Genki

He raced forward and then fought on for 4.22L 3rd to That’s Gold in the G2 Avondale Guineas (2100m). Place claims again.

10

Sweet Ice

He suffered interference late when 11.72L 11th to That’s Gold in the G2 Avondale Guineas (2100m). He needs to lift.

11

Halo’s Fire

Lightly raced and hasn’t been too far away. At his last start he finished 5.42L 5th to That’s Gold in the G2 Avondale Guineas (2100m). Extra trip could suit.

12

Lunaman

He settled in the rear of the field and was held up near the 200m mark when 7.09L 9th to That’s Gold in the G2 Avondale Guineas (2100m). Outsider with a chance.

13

Wigmore

He finished 0.29L 2nd two starts ago over 2200m before 5th last start with both in BM65 grade. He will find this hard.

14

Taylor Square

He’s had only one win from 13 starts. He will need to improve on his last start 5.9L 7th to That’s Gold in the G2 Avondale Guineas (2100m).

15

Autumn Glory

Top class three-year-old filly who followed narrow win in the G2 Waikato Guineas (2000m) with 2.24L 2nd in the G1 New Zealand Oaks (2400m). Go close.

16

Ariadne

Solid effort when 5.62L 4th in the G1 New Zealand Oaks (2400m) at her last start which gives her place claims here.
