5K a step in the right direction. Inclusion of Sundays would be helpful. -

Online where? NZTAB turnover is definitely an investment for me. That's what pays for the racehorses. Unfortunately the finance director won't let me take those costs out of the household budget. -

By Jonny Turner Theoretically Always Dreaming should be winning his Southern Surge Final at Gore on Sunday. But with lucrative stakes up and an outstanding series about to culminate, theories can go out the window. Always Dreaming is part of a powerful squad that trainer-driver Nathan Williamson lines up on a big day for southern harness racing. The three-year-old beat the same field he faces from the same tough draw in his excellent Southern Surge heat win at Ascot Park a fortnight ago. As the pacer was fresh up and his rivals had all had recent racing, Always Dreaming should strip fitter and prove even harder to beat in Race 10, the Macca Lodge Southern Surge Series Final Mobile Pace (5.18pm). While that appears to be the case, Williamson isn’t losing any respect for his opposition. “His win was good and he seems to have trained on quite well since then,” Williamson said. “It should be a pretty tactical race, it may not pan out quite like last time.” “The money is up and everyone will be out there doing their best.” “I am probably going to have to work him into it at some stage, however it works out I am pretty hopeful he will be a great chance.” She’s Crunchy ($1.95) will attempt to keep her unbeaten record intact in her Southern Surge Final tilt (3.44pm). The mare has been outstanding in both of her wins so far and she looks well poised from barrier 3. “She’s come up with a nice draw and I think she has the speed to use it.” “She’s a nice filly and if she can front up like she has in her first two starts, she should be a great chance.” Clotilde Wainwright was an impressive heat winner downing key rival Tarragindi at Winton. The mare’s task on Sunday is to do it again. “She’s a lovely wee mare and her win at Winton was great.” “Obviously Tarragindi is the horse to beat but if she gets away and does everything right she is more than capable of filling a hole.” Williamson also starts Black Pat in another trotting final on Sunday. The four-year-old made a mistake in her last start at Ascot Park, which she can’t afford to do again. “It all depends on whether she can bring her manners.” “If she was able to get it right, we would push forward, there doesn’t look to be any natural leaders there.” “Over 2200m at Gore, that’s the place to be with the good ones off handicaps.” Williamson also starts Rise Up N Dance in another of Sunday’s finals and Indulge Me in a two-year-old event.

By Michael Guerin Tonight’s $40,000 Allied Security Maurice Holmes Vase at Addington (8.14pm) isn’t Franco Marek’s Grand Final but it holds his ticket to his Grand Final. The hard-running pacer looks the most likely beneficiary of his last-start conqueror Alta Meteor missing tonight’s Group 3 race after he beat many of these home when finishing second last start. While owner-trainer Greg Manson was pleased with that performance tonight’s race has always been his early season aim with Franco Marek because it includes a golden ticket for the winner into the IRT New Zealand Trotting Cup on Tuesday, November 11. Franco Marek raced in the Cup last season albeit it off an interrupted preparation but the great race may be even harder to get into this season with stars like Leap To Fame, Swayzee, Republican Party, Merlin, Don’t Stop Dreaming and Akuta certain to be in the field so there are really only nine, and probably less, spots up for grabs. For a horse like Franco Marek who is still only a Rating 85 pacer a victory tonight is clearly the cleanest path to November 11. “We want to be in the Cup again this season and this is how we want to get into it,” says Manson. “So we have set him for this, had him up and going nice and early and I was really happy with his fresh up run. “Alta Meteor was good beating us but our fella was looking at puddles when coming up the inside and the other horse just got too much momentum up. “But he is not there this week and we really get our chance.” Franco Marek and American Me finished in the placings behind Alta Meteor last start and they are suited again tonight as they tend to step and get handy, which could see them lead and trail again. That will make it hard for all their rivals but particularly Mo’unga, who was running on well in the same race last start but faces a 10m handicap tonight in a race which may not have the moves to drag him into the race. That is not to say they are the only chances in the race as the Dunn team looks set to come right this spring while Bazooka is an interesting addition to open class, albeit being on the unruly so likely to also settle back in the small field. Later in the night the open class trotters return in the Basil Dean Trot over 1980m mobile with most eyes of Muscle Mountain. The grand old horse has to start from the outside of the front line and was only given a quiet trial last week so one of the key questions will be whether driver Ben Hope decides to light him up and use his gate speed early. The clear danger should be Love N The Port, who has been in great form in weaker races but has gate speed and could secure tactical advantage. View the full article
