Did I hear that Darci La Bella was late-scratched because the jockey was overweight ?

If so ....... disappointing. 😒

If so, sad because she is such a talented rider but weight problems already while still an apprentice

She's had weight problems before but I read somewhere where she felt she had it under control.

Could just be a Xmas thing. I hope so as she clearly has talent.

Both La Strata and Keen to Run ran in a mdn 1300m at Hawera on 10th October 2020. The winner of that race, Tellall went on to win his next 2 races. Vineyard McPhee and Harry Hewitt have also gone on to win. 

Indy Fox who finished 3rd in that race is lining up in race 6 today.

Scr: nil

Popular winner with 24 in the money as Graeme, Gordy, Hesi, Jill, Richie, Geoff and Dancing Show all snag the quinella while Wandering and TC doubled up with BBs. No change in the top quartet. If Hobart is abandoned the comp will be decided on the 8 races from Pukekura Raceway.

Race 4 - New Plymouth R4

1st - 2 Bentayga W-$1.90 

2nd - 14 Sweet Tui Q-$83.20  

Scr: 3-5,10

Ray goes 4-from-4 to maintain a handy lead but Craig arrives with a very sweet quinella to take up 2nd spot. Graeme, Gordy, Virgil, Richie, and Stevie N all double up with best bets. Hobart is still on but the program is put back one race. Only $10 in the 3-way H-T-H contest !

1st - 1 Streak of Power W-$4.40 

2nd - 3 Hot Spring Project Q-$11.30  

Scr: 5,8,10,13

The top two fail to score as Geoff bags a BB to claim 3rd spot while arch-rival Richie grabs 4th with a quinella. Roland and Tom (in the 3-way contest) also snagged the Q. Hobart is off so just 3 races left to decide today's points.

Some close contests in the H-T-Hs.

Just $7 separates Geoff and Hesi and only 60 cents the difference between VS and Richie !

Jill and Rob, Dancing Show and Graeme plus Roland and TC all in great battles while a terrific tussle ensues between Jen and Ngakonui G !!

The next race looks one of the more even 'go's of the day ..... and I'm wondering now if 'Ata Rangi' is about ready third-up to put it's foot in the till. I.m prepared now to say it is, with the Fixed Price $26 very tempting.
Yeah ..why not ...I'll have a crack. 😁.
Stablemate 'Celebre' has just won it's race, so I'm looking now for back-to-back success for the John Bell team.

At the top Ray still leads but Geoff - in great form - has claimed Craig with his 4th straight winner while Howie is mounting a challenge moving up 6 places to 4th from a tightly packed upper midfield. Stevie N snagged the quinella to move into the points while Rees bagged a BB to move into the top 10.

but Geoff - in great form - has claimed Craig with his 4th straight winner

Best move that Geoff has ever made ..... phoning the '0800-howiecanyouhelp' hotline.
Credit to Geoff - he's a good listener ..... and starting to reap the rewards. 😁

Race 7 - New Plymouth R7

1st - 2 Our Hail Mary W-$3.20 

2nd - 8 Posh Porotene Q-$6.20  

Scr: nil

Another favourite winner so not much change at the top although Porky bags a beaut BB quinella to race up to 4th and Von Smallhausen bags a BB to break into the top 5. BB also bagged by PJ while the popular quinella choice was tipped by Geoff, Howie, Gordy, Wandering and the 3 "Rs" - Richie, Rees and Rocky. Plenty of close head-to-heads going into the last. Top 10 last race tips in brackets.

6-Reliable Miss (even though it's favourite) is not a good result for me in the last, given that those immediately above and immediately below me are all on it. 
That's what happens when scores are so condensed.
So I better sink a truckload on Reliable Miss to weigh her down a tad. 😄

HOBART ABANDONED

Race 8 - New Plymouth R8

1st - 2 Wee Dram W-$11.10 

2nd - 6 Reliable Miss Q-$12.60  

Scr: 15,16

Well that escalated quickly ! Poor Ray had led all day but missed in the last 4 races and was swamped in the shadows of the post with Richie bagging a beaut BB to sail home to victory. Howie also found the Wanganui wuffie to leap into the runner-up slot while the ever dangerous Gordy landed his 3rd quinella of the day to flash home for 3rd.  Punter Pete (a BB) and Graeme (quinella) also finished strongly late to push Ray back to 6th. Dancing Show also nailed the quinella to go from 0 points into the top 10 while Georgy also got into the points with Roland, Maurice and TC bumped out of the points after missing in the last. Shame we didn't get to go to Hobart. Thanks for playing and see you all tomorrow for Rotorua and primarily Timaru.
