Tauranga 

Race 1

Confidence: 2/5

12.Shejengar closed off strongly second up in a stronger field. He will be improved with that and set to peak back in maiden class. RP$3.50, $4FF

Race 9

Confidence:2/5

5.Deebee Zapower won well here over 1400m 3 starts back, and his last run was very good as it was too short for him and he had a tough run. Back up to 1400m looks ideal for him and he has drawn wide which will be an asset by this time of day. RP $4, $5FF

Riccarton

Race 5

Confidence:3/5

7.Sea Shepherd needed the run here last week as he just blew out 150m from the finish. He is very good horse and Michael McNab takes over. RP $3.00, $3.80FF

Race 6

Confidence: 4/5

3.West Coast jumped superbly on the first day and should win. RP $1.30. $1.65 FF

Race 7 First leg of the quaddie

Just 1.Verry Flash and 2.Summer Festival needed here

Race 8

3.6, 7 and 8 look the ones to beat

Race 9

1,2,6, 8, 10,14

Race 10

1, 4, 5, 6, 7,8,9,10 11 and 12
