WEDNESDAY AT MATAMATA

Racing Matamata at Matamata – twilight meeting

Weather: fine, Track: Dead5, Rail: out 2.5 metres

4.34 p.m. R4 6 Avec Moi (4 m Pour Moi – Fuji Belle, by Fuji Kiseki) – Mark Du Plessis; resumes from barrier two in the $12,000 NZB Pearl Series 1400 metres and although without a trial she has strengthened and pleased in training. A winner third up, over this distance last November, she will improve for the run but by the same token capable of a solid first up performance. Fixed odds: $6.50 & $2.10.

6.53p.m. R8 10 Wonder Woman (4 m Showcasing – She’s Invincible, by Elusive City) – Mark Du Plessis; sustained a strong finish from sixth at the 600m to finish third in the Rating 70 1100 metres on 29 November at Rotorua, with the winner, Caesour’s Dream (Nicconi), franking the form in a higher grade at Ellerslie. In the $11,000 Rating 70 1200 metres, she rates an each way chance with a touch of luck from barrier eight. Fixed odds: $6.00 & $1.85.
