Gray hoping for sunny day at Gore

Ryal Bush harness racing trainer Brett Gray takes an in-form team to the Gore grass track meeting on Sunday.

Three win mare Takeitout (Captaintreacherous) gets her chance to qualify for the Southern Belle Speed Series Final in Race One. Two starts ago she was racing in Group company at Addington, so this race is a massive drop back in class.

Three year old filly Sidorova (Always B Miki) gets a nice marble in Race Three. She sat parked at her last start and battled home well for fourth.

After an encouraging second Warrior Easton (Auckland Reactor) pulled hard and choked down at his last start. He gets his chance to redeem in Race Four.

Foxfire Easton (Washington VC) is a new recruit to the Gray barn. He last raced in May and has had one workout to fit him for Sunday’s task. He draws barrier six in Race Six.

Three year old gelding Wehavtime (Art Major) will start in Race Nine. He last raced in December and won a workout at Winton recently in preparation for his return.

Quality trotter Julie Jaccka (Father Patrick) last raced in Group company at Addington in December, running second in the New Zealand Trotting Oaks in one of those starts. She’s had one workout since returning home.

In Race Twelve Gray lines up Pounamu (Washington VC). He was an impressive winner on the grass at Riverton, winning by eight lengths.
