Rotorua Race 5 - THE ROTORUA CLUB 1400
CHAOS CREATOR (12) has continued to improve with racing, and she ran her best race when finishing runner-up by a head at Avondale a fortnight ago. She is still a juvenile, and she gets in with a light weight here. Her first win is not far away. PROUD CAPITALIST (3) has raced her way into form, and was less than 2 lengths from the winner when finishing third at Pukekohe 3 weeks ago. She tries 1400m for the first time, and she can take this out. BEABOPALULA (8) made some progress this season, and her recent spell would have done her no harm. She has trialled up recently, and a wet track is no problem. Follow the market moves. HAPPY TRAVELLER (6) has run on late in both of her starts this prep, and the extra 250m is just what the doctor ordered for her. Include in all top 4 combos. ANNIE BLING (4) is bred to relish stepping up from 1200m to 1400m, and she is more than capable of figuring in the finish here. Something for the Multiples: GETAWAY (5)
