H\u0101wera hosts an eight-race program on Wednesday, with the track rated a Good4 and the rail in the true position. Despite some irrigation being applied leading into raceday, a clear forecast in the region on Wednesday should see the surface remain in the Good4 range throughout the afternoon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3 Up With Ace<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

Up With Ace (#3) is a 4yo son of Ace High who comes here at start number nine. He had his first look over a staying trip last start and looked to see it out\u00a0<\/span>reasonably well<\/span>. The addition of blinkers and the booking of Samantha Collett from a low draw should see him positioned on speed in a race that lacks tempo. An improved showing\u00a0<\/span>wouldn\u2019t<\/span>\u00a0surprise in this company.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Shadow Ruler (#8) is a 4yo mare from the Janelle Millar yard making her debut. She has had just the one trial back in September where she held her own against decent opposition. From the inside draw she should settle a pair or two back from the speed at worst, and in what appears a moderate maiden, happy to\u00a0<\/span>speculate<\/span>\u00a0on her at odds to run a race on debut.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Honor The Name (#2) produced a solid effort first-up at <\/span>Te<\/span>\u00a0Aroha in her first run for the Hollie Wynyard stable. While the wide draw looks a touch sticky on paper, she may be able to tag Portland in the run if ridden positively early by Kate Hercock. She should take improvement from that resuming run and looks a strong each-way chance at the price.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

She\u2019s<\/span>\u00a0Got Gears (#9) is a 3yo El Roca filly making her debut for Cody Cole. She showed good improvement between her last two trials, where she hit the line strongly under minimal urging in her most recent trial. From the low draw she should be allowed to find her rhythm and settle back of midfield with cover. She looks capable of running a cheeky race on debut at the price.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Trendsetter (#4) is a capable staying mare on her day who has been undone by Heavy tracks at her past couple. The return to firmer footing and a drop back to what looks a moderate R65 field sees her ideally placed to bounce back sharply. Craig Grylls aboard from a low draw is a big tick and she looks\u00a0<\/span>very hard<\/span>\u00a0to beat.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

East End Lad (#4) resumes here, last seen finishing 6th behind Thorax in a MAAT race at Trentham back in December. His recent trial was encouraging, suggesting he has returned in good order ahead of this. He maps to settle midfield with cover off a solid tempo, which should allow him to finish off strongly late.
