One from one in appearances at the races and\u00a0<\/span>there\u2019s<\/span>\u00a0a bit of word around the traps that Roger That (4) is on a march toward the top of the two-year-old tree here in NZ. Really nice trial at Addington 10 days ago, which while nothing flashy in the result, looked great to the eye and the small field here means he should win with no fuss.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span>

Tip of The Day<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

A steady and strong diet of runs for Jesse Owens (1) to get ready for this resumption including a very sharp trial last week at Addington. Looks ready to rock and roll first up and with the aid of the inside barrier draw looks even harder to beat. Can do the odd thing wrong though, so one to be cautious of.\u00a0<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span>
