This G3 1800m Open Handicap saw Girl Of My Dreams remain unbeaten on the tight and often biased New Plymouth track. The visiting mare is now three-for-three here and after sitting outside the leader early then being third across the top moved up turning for home and took control at the 200m. It was her seventh win in thirty-two starts and interestingly her two G3 successes have come at this very track. She won by a length and clocked 1:49.84. Silverdale ran on well late for second after settling down last and then driving through the run home. Storming The Tower found the line well for third once into clear air after getting a soft fence run midfield for most of the race. Rohaise was a sound fourth after challenging for the lead across the top having been sat handy the outer prior. Savaria ran on well late but this track never helped her cause after settling down last so expect improvement once back to a roomier circuit. Just The Tip led and ran okay so is close to some form. Nothing Trivial, Gustavo and Bel Sorriso were all not beaten too far and more rain would certainly help the latter. Tie Me Down was a distant last and has been poor for a while now, so something clearly is not quite right this campaign it seems. Not the strongest G3 so the form worth a tad suspect plus the 1800m is that in between trip where milers can cope and prosper but stayers find it a shade light.
