NZ - Te Rapa - Race 4

YOUNG JACKSON (1) has needed time to mature, but has always had a reputation around him. He looked in good condition when finishing close up in a recent trial, and if he is not already looking for more ground, he can snatch a win fresh up, with an eye to some richer assignments later in the year. KYGO STAR (4) resumes from a spell for the first time from the leading Walker/Bergerson stable, and it is good to see Opie Bosson picking up the ride. A wide gate is no help, but he can still give this field a big shake. TIANTAI (9) is a very promising mare who has been given plenty of time to come to it. She won her maiden fresh up last prep, and was doing good things late in a recent trial. She needs some gaps to come her way from the pole position to be a big winning threat in this. DA ACE (7) ended his last prep with an overdue maiden win, and he should also be competitive fresh up here. VICTOR TANGO (5) ran on late fresh up over 6f, and he can improve again over 7f. Keep him safe.
