Matamata

EMMA TWIGG (5) First up from a break of 18 weeks and reeled them in to win first up last preparation at Te Aroha. Matched against lesser competition. Back to a shorter trip. Solid claims. PLACES TO BE (2) Resumes after a break. Gave ground when 4th last run at Ellerslie. Expecting to settle positively. Should go well. TRACK TESTER (1) Resuming after a break. Tailed off to finish 11th last time at Te Rapa. Has the potential to improve sharply but down in distance. Coming to a new trainer. Will be there at the finish. BELLE DU MONDE (4) Moved ahead of some to finish 4th last time at Taupo. Among the major players.
