Verdict

LAP IT UP (5) is a three-year-old filly from the D N & Mrs A C S Jones yard on debut. Trial winner who looks above average. Finds a nice race so anticipating a bright start to her career. BACARDI DOLL (2) turned in another strong performance last start when she battled on bravely to finish second over 1 ¼m at Oamaru. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Meets a similar line up and she can figure in the finish. TOMMY (10) was beaten 55 metres on debut last start over 1 ½m at Mt Harding. Capable of a lot more this time around. NATIVES BLAZIN SON (4) last appeared when 13th over 1 ½m at Ashburton Raceway ten months ago. Expecting a better effort to kick off this prep.
