Verdict

ZAHARIAS (6) ended her promising juvenile campaign with an unplaced effort in the Karaka Millions. She has won the latest of a couple of tune-up trials, and on her home track in maiden company, she is the one to beat, especially with Grylls up. GENEVA QUEEN (2) is the stable mate of the top pick, and her best run was on debut when finishing second here in March. She has trialled up, and will be a lot stronger this season. Each way. BAIA SERENA (8) is a nicely bred 3YO filly making her debut off the back of a tidy trial win at Te Rapa. She has plenty of improvement to come in her condition, and the market will be a strong guide. RHAENA (13) makes her debut after winning a couple of trials this year over 2 preps, and she only has to overcome a wide gate to be a big threat in this. MANGO LANE (9) won her only trial to date by a wide margin, and with the aid of a 4lbs claim, she can make an immediate impact if no too green.
