Matt Markham gives his best in all races at Addington Harness on Friday 24 July.  Addington Harness Race 1 5 Cee Whata Mickee Exciting pacer Cee What Mickee (5) resumes from a spell here and does so with a really sharp trials win under the belt. That will have brought him right on, but a run will help even more so he is vulnerable tonight, despite being the best in the field. Right run and his speed will take him close.  Selections: 5-11-9-2-8  Addington R1 – IRT. YOUR HORSE. OUR PASSION. MBL PACE Open Race time:  5. Cee Whata Mickee (5) J: Sam Thornley 2113xT:…

Matt Markham gives his best in all races at Alexandra Park Harness on Friday 24 July.  Alexandra Park Harness Race 1 7 Miss Brabant More good than bad in all of the recent efforts from Miss Brabant (7) and while she hasn’t won for a while, she’s clearly knocking on the door. Has been in stronger fields than this one in some races recently and with a cold shot at them a little luck can be the one to finish over the top of them all.  Selections: 7-6-4-5-3  Alexandra Park R1 – SWEET LOU @ WOODLANDS TENDER CLOSES 09/10 MBL PACE Open Race time:  7. Miss Brabant…

Matt Markham gives his best in all races at Addington Harness on Sunday 19 July.  Addington Harness Race 1 4 Lexicon Without a workout or a trial under the belt, Lexicon (4) was very good fresh up here a couple of weeks ago and should have taken plenty of benefit from that. Looks awfully hard to beat here today with a similar kind of performance and likely to take bad luck out of the equation.  Selections: 4-1-7-3-5  Addington R1 – NEW ZEALAND BLOODSTOCK MBL TROT Open Race time:  4. Lexicon (4) J: Bob Butt 322×2T: Bob Butt 1.50WIN 1.05PLACE Run down as fave 1st-up here,…

Matt Markham gives his best in all races at Cambridge Harness on Friday 17 July. Cambridge Harness Race 1 10 Another Collect Nice wee slide back in grade here for Another Collect (10) compared to some of the recent assignments and looks pretty well placed. A little luck needed early from the barrier now with a scratching to the inside, but clear air at the right time and should be too good for this field.  Selections: 10-8-1-7-6  Cambridge R1 – HARNESS EDUCATION & HEALTH TRUST JR DRIVERS MBL PACE Open Race time:  10. Another Collect (2) J: Brooke Wilkins 63308T: Barry Purdon &…

Matt Markham gives his best in all races at Addington Harness on Friday 17 July.  Addington Harness Race 1 10 Nothing But You Wanted to lock on a rein and run out a bit around the last bend last week, but an encouraging start to the new campaign for Nothing But You (10) all the same. Drops into this race beautifully and as the class horse of the field deserves the short quote. Should deliver too, even from the second row.  Selections: 10-5-8-3-7  Addington R1 – LISTEN LIVE ON SPORTNATION.NZ MBL PACE Open Race time:  10. Nothing But You (1) J: Blair Orange…

Matt Markham gives his best in all races at Addington Harness on Sunday 12 July.  Addington Harness Race 1 4 Zeus Each Way A couple of tidy runs from Zeus (4) since resuming from a short let up and the fitness levels should be reaching peak now. Much better draw to work from and if he can hold a forward position without doing a stack of work then he’s more than good enough to win this.  Selections: 4-7-8-3-2  Addington R1 – HILLCREST AGISTMENT MBL PACE Open Race time:  4. Zeus (4) J: Brett Thomas 08455T: Brett Thomas 8.00WIN 2.15PLACE Useful runs of 2nd…

Matt Markham gives his best in all races at Invercargill Harness on Sunday 12 July.  Invercargill Harness Race 1 7 Rakamick A string of second placings in the last few starts tells the story of Rakamick (7) here today. Deserves a winning turn and should really get one here today too. Not as strong of a line up of rivals as some of the recent runs and will be driven confidently, so looks a strong bet to start the day.  Selections: 7-5-9-3-12  Invercargill R1 – CRAIG & DYLAN NO.1 FOR 2026 @ HARCOURTS MBL PACE Open Race time:  7. Rakamick (7) J: Carter Dalgety 65222T:…

Matt Markham gives his best in all races at Addington Harness on Friday 10 July.  Addington Harness Race 1 5 Gunslinger Willy Superb victory first go at the races from Gunslinger Willy (5) and he looks a horse capable of going right on with it over the coming months too. Steps up here and takes on some smart and hard types, but the raw speed is there and if he gets the chance he’ll put it on full display.  Selections: 5-9-4-2-6  Addington R1 – IRT. YOUR HORSE. OUR PASSION MBL PACE Final Race time:  4th 5. Gunslinger Willy (5) J: Riley Harrison 1T: Robert & Jenna…

Matt Markham gives his best in all races at Addington Harness on Sunday 5 July.  Addington Harness Race 1 10 Lasa Huge effort here last week from Lasa (10) after getting things wrong in the score up. Had no right to finish as close. Tricky draw here, but the speed should be good so will be looking to hunt gap lates and have the final say at them in a very even field.  Selections: 10-5-12-2-4  Addington R1 – SOUTHERN PORK AMATEUR DRIVER CHAMPS HT 3 MBL PACE Open Race time:  10.
