NZ - Matamata - Race 5

IFBYMAGIC (2) made steady progress in 3 starts last season, and looks on target for some even better returns this prep after winning a recent trial well enough by a head. A tricky gate is no help, but he is bred to further improve with time, and he is on top for us in this. NO CURFEW (12) has needed plenty of trial experience before making his debut, and though he still has some more maturing to do yet, he can make an immediate impact. Check the markets moves. TRIPLE THREAT (3) had to do a fair amount of work fresh up off a wide draw, and understandably tired in the run to the line. He has won a trial before that, and with a nice swing in his draw, he can improve sharply. DICKO'S DANCE (11) makes his debut on his home track, and Craig Grylls has stuck with him right the way through, keeping the ride here. If not too green, he should be very competitive at the first time of asking. MANORBIER (4) did not cope with the poly track last time out, and is expected to do much better here.
