Our runners this week: How our trainers rate them
Ray’s comments
Thursday night at Cambridge
Race 1: Im Not The Maid
5.14pm
“She went better last time when third. She tries hard but doesn’t win out of turn and there look to be a few here that are better than her.”
Race 6: Leo Lincoln
7.32pm
“He’s been racing well and won two nice stakes at Manawatu so we can’t complain. But he’s up in grade and, even with a head start, I anticipate horses like Little Spike and The Surfer would be much too good for him here.”
Ray’s comments
Friday night at Auckland
Race 2: Whats Up The Hill
6.29pm
“We had to change his sulky on the track just before the start of the race when the hub collapsed on one of the wheels. The replacement was a bit short and he was touching the wheels in the running. And when Paramount Lady came off his back and swished round him at the 400, he tried to go with her and didn’t have the ringcraft to stay down trotting. Apart from that I thought he went super.”
Race 8: Lincoln La Moose
9.23pm
“He was a certainty beaten last start at Cambridge but how could he beat these horses who are far higher graded? It once again shows just what a shortage of horses we have in the north. He’ll just have to go round to drop points.”
