This week's list features a pair of Minnesota-breds and one 'TDN Rising Star, presented by Hagyard' who is now on a two-race win streak. 4 (tie). THUNDERS ROCKNROLL, WRD, 1/12-5th, 6 furlongs Beyer Speed Figure-87 (m, 6, by Maclean's Music–Thunder and Honey, by Thunder Gulch) O/B-Bob Lindgren (Minn). T-Patrick Swan. J-David Cabrera. The Minnesota-bred dominated the Wilma Mankiller Stakes by 8 1/2 lengths at Will Rogers Downs for her fifth added-money win. This female line has been kind to prominent Minnesota owner Lindgren, who raced the six-times-stakes-placed dam and well as the dam's half-sister Honey's Sox Appeal, a member of Canterbury Park's Hall of Fame. 4 (tie). SENZA PAROLE, GP, 1/15-7th, 1 mile Beyer Speed Figure-87 (f, 4, by Gun Runner–Senza Te, by Street Cry) O-Don Alberto Stable. B-Don Alberto Corporation (Ky). T-Chad Brown. J-Irad Ortiz Jr. Circumstances have kept her from fulfilling the potential she showed in her impressive 'TDN Rising Star'-worthy Saratoga debut as a 2-year-old. After that sparkling 94 Beyer, a chipped knee sidelined her for a year, then she lost her two comeback starts. But she now has won two straight, and this seven-length romp was especially encouraging. Don Alberto paid $700,000 in 2013 at Keeneland November to acquire her Grade III-winning granddam Sacristy, and the book isn't closed yet on Senza Parole's career. 3. LUCKY SPEECH, FG, 1/17-9th, 1 1/16th (turf) Beyer Speed Figure-88 (3rd) (m, 5, by Audible–Luckyallmylife, by Lookin At Lucky O-Millennium Stable. B-Delia Nash & Jun Park (Ky). T-Steve Asmussen. J-James Graham. A rail trip helped her finish a well-beaten third in the Marie Krantz Stakes at 72-1 odds, but the race was fast enough that she still earned a career-best Beyer. Out of a Turfway Park stakes winner, owner Ro Parra took her for $105,000 in 2022 at Keeneland September. 2. CUPID'S CRUSH, FG, 1/17-9th, 1 1/16th (turf) Beyer Speed Figure-96 (2nd) (m, 6, by Cupid–Dazzlingsweetheart, by Dazzling Falls) O-Xtreme Racing Stables. B-Mary & Eric Von Seggern and Barry & Joni Butzow (Minn). T-Hugh Robertson. J-Martin Pedroza Jr. The second Minnesota-bred on this week's list, she's now been second in the Marie Krantz Stakes in back-to-back runnings. She controlled the pace at 27-1 odds, kicked home in :23.27 and would've won by 4 1/4 lengths had Medoro not been in the field. Owners Mike and Vicki McGowan paid just $40,000 for her at a 2021 Minnesota yearling sale even though her dam was a Canterbury Park stakes winner. Cupid's Crush has won five stakes at Canterbury. 1. MEDORO, FG, 1/17-9th, 1 1/16th (turf) Beyer Speed Figure-97 (m, 5, by Honor Code–Achira, by English Channel) O-C R K Stable. B-Parks Investment Group (Ky). T-Peter Eurton. J-Jose Ortiz. Off the board for the first time in her career thanks to a disastrous trip in the GI Matriarch Stakes, she made amends with a fast number at Fair Grounds in the ungraded Marie Krantz Memorial. Her owner-breeder Lee Searing spent $140,000 in 2019 to buy into one of the late Jerry Moss's best female families with the acquisition of dam Achira, out of a full sister to Kentucky Derby winner Giacomo.

Hey Brodie they do look at this site after all lol. Website updates - fixed odds and Harness 5000 Fixed odds prices have been temporarily removed from the HRNZ website due to a technical issue impacting functionality. Work is underway to make the necessary improvements and fixed odds are expected to return to the website once a solution is implemented. The fixed odds are still available on tab.co.nz. -

When Greg Oconnor asked Peden about recent turnovers last night on the box seat Peden reacted like a man who had just opened a power bill he wasn't expecting. Out came the familiar “economic downward pressure” explanation for the disappointing numbers. I suspect most punters were behaving much like I was. The bad turnover was in fact the result of smaller fields than usual probably due to bad programming, so I turned over barely a quarter of what I normally would over that period. -
well another damning report from the Galah , to go along with Brodie's constant critical analysis of HRNZ, Entain, ATC and North Island racing , and feature racing and anything else that encompasses Nz Harness racing, including the Programmer and the Starter . you Might as well throw the Stipes on the bon-fire as well and the North Island Junior drivers. 😂 . nobody can do anything properly in NZ according to you 2 blokes ?? 🤣 Those juniors (except Delaney who doesn't drive much) seem ok in their records , and accusing them of not thinking of safety is a bit harsh. I'm sure they're better than that? and Coppins just won 5 races the first day at Hawera. Don't see you guys congratulating that fine effort ?lol. 🤭 probably Not good enough 😉 But on a more reflective note , since you feel sorry for BECKER getting the run around and nearly hitting the grass twice in one race, here's a funny 'Bit of a Yarn' just for you. 40 years ago almost to the day Feb 86' , the original BECKER was exported to Aus as a maiden from the North island. The purchaser hoping the horse by sire 'Lonero' might have a fraction of the ability of the Australian Derby winner that year in My Lightning Blue (probably the only good horse by Lonero ever😎 , and went on and won the NZ Cup) But BECKER was one of those horses that couldn't win , even though we were running slow 2.04-2.08 mile rates those days , and had about 30 seconds in race career from memory and only 1 or 2 wins. He was backed off the map at his first start in Aus after arriving ( to win about 40k 💰 I think it was from the Bookies. I remember helping get some of it on ) at some country obscure maiden race. but the Bugger Becker galloped at the start and lost about 40m 🙄, then battled back into it and ran 2nd. No collect lol. A real flopparooney was the old BECKER. they never recovered the purchase price on that horse. He was a bad buy. A real slow one lol. just the sort you could send to Hawera ? to flop around lol . 40 years on . a 'Becker' memory revived lol 😂
