7	533248	Tu Tangata	2	10	Paul Nairn	Off-stride at crucial time at Add. Won here back in 2022 and likes grass. Cover.
8	222X95	Barrytown	3	10	Tim Williams	Improved on resumption run to finish 5th, 5 Oct. Chance with further improvement
9	5168X7	Illegal Alien	4	10	Henry Sail(J)	Looked in need of her 1st-up run last week. Mixed record here; need right price.
10	102755	Love Walked In	5	10	Ben Hope	Back to track she has raced well at following tidy Add runs. Win wouldn't shock.
11	9041X0	Sunny Louis	1	20	Sam Thornley(J)	Contained in fresh-up Add run last week. Record solid here and can improve today
12	79289X	Premium Player	2	20	Gavin Smith	All 4 wins have come on this surface and has placed fresh twice. Market watch.
13	519746	Cormoran Strike	3	20	Robbie Close	Last 2 runs have had merit and he's aiming to maintain strike-rate here. Combos.
Best Bets: Grettymac (3), The Royal Gamble (6), Love Walked In (10), Tu Tangata (7)

Participants for Race 12: AKAROA TC THANKS ITS SUPPORTERS MOBILE PACE
Book	Form	Name	Draw	Hcp	Driver	Comment
1	51215X	Rena	1	Ft	Ben Hope	Showed promise winning twice in 6 starts in initial campaign. Include from ace.
2	679805	Kowhai Nugget	2	Ft	Samantha Ottley	Racing out of new barn following a sound 5th at HQ. Capable but thin grass stats
3	21417X	Shannon B	3	Ft	Wilson House(J)	First look here but goes well on grass and in a fresh state. Entitled to respect
4	77X8P8	Franco Sailor	4	Ft	Kyle Cameron	Battled hard in tough conditions at Meth. Could boost exotics from handy marble.
5	507609	Wuhan	5	Ft	Matthew Williamson	OK at Add before Tim failure. Must show improvement to play a minor role here.
6	421340	Apatchofgold	6	Ft	Colin DeFilippi	Midfield trial following disappointing Add outing, 15 Aug. Generally thereabouts
7	350422	Mouton Cadet	7	Ft	Mia Holbrough(J)	Plenty of gate speed so likely to find a forward spot despite wide alley. Cover.
8	262318	Beachbreak	8	Ft	Terry Chmiel	Failed to back up Oam victory at Add, 26 Sept. Wide draw no assist; minors best.
9	648431	Don Juan	9	Ft	Tayla Duley(J)	Got the chocolates in mid-week Add meeting. This alley makes it hard to back up.
---------------------------- Second Line ----------------------------
10	610X50	Hi Hopes	10	Ft	Seth Hill(J)	Tidy Oam 5th but couldn't overcome rough draw next up. Luck required in this.
11	351261	Magical Max	11	Ft	Ricky May	Racing with real purpose and with an early passage through can push hard again.
12	320X06	Franco Humbie	12	Ft	John Morrison	Improved on his resumption run when 6th here, 21 Sept. Outside place prospect.
13	424594	Almighty Clever	13	Ft	Gavin Smith	Early check put paid to Meth hopes and stuck well at Add since. First 4 fringes.
14	131322	Riptide	14	Ft	Tim Williams	Tried hard at Tim and on the cusp of another win. 2nd row draw shouldn't stop.
Best Bets: Riptide (14), Rena (1), Shannon B (3), Mouton Cadet (7)
Best Mile Rates: Hi Hopes (1-57.1), Kowhai Nugget (1-57.6), Almighty Clever (1-57.9) [races less or equal 2000m]
