Tajana will contest Saturday’s Group 3 Sunline Vase (1400m) at Ellerslie. Photo: Therese Davis (Race Images) Fresh is best for top quality three-year-old Tajana who has thrived since her impressive return to competition last month. The Oaks Stud-bred and raced daughter of Darci Brahma was a resuming winner of the Group 3 Northland Breeders’ Stakes (1200m) ahead of a second-up tilt at Saturday’s Group 3 Al Basti Equiworld Dubai Sunline Vase (1400m) at Ellerslie. Tajana, jumping from the seventh gate, is paying $3.20 and is a live chance of winning, according to trainer Shaune Ritchie. “She was very good last time and has done fantastically well, I’m pleased we ran her at Ruakaka,” Ritchie, who trains in partnership with Colm Murray, said. More: How to bet on NZ racing “The four weeks between runs will really suit her. I think she is a natural mile and a-quarter horse, that’s what she’s showing us at the moment. “Keeping her fresh for these shorter distances is the right way to go and I am expecting her to go really super on Saturday. “She is a high-quality filly, no doubt, and she has really come on with the trip up there (Ruakaka) and the time to get over the race to really bring her summer coat through.” Tajana has now won twice from five starts, having broken her maiden last season and placed in the group 1 Manawatu Sires’ Produce Stakes (1400m) and Group 3 Colin Jillings 2YO Classic (1200m). Her main spring goal is the Group 1 New Zealand 1000 Guineas (1600m) and, safely through this weekend, she will have one more outing before the Riccarton feature. “The program we have going forward, which Rick Williams (The Oaks General Manager) and I have discussed, is a good one,” Ritchie said. “She will go to the Soliloquy Stakes (Group 2, 1400m) before we head down to Riccarton. “She is a laid-back filly and lovely to train, she almost trains herself and the only real concern is the 1400m on Saturday far enough, but I don’t think we could have tackled it any other way.” Tajana was ridden to victory at Ruakaka by Wiremu Pinn, who will make way at Ellerslie for Geroge Rooke. “He was promised the ride before he got hurt and he’ll ride her through the season,” Ritchie said. Tajana is currently the $5 second favourite for the 1000 Guineas behind Saturday’s race rival Lollapalooza at $3.20 with PlayUp (Playup review). View the full article -
It appeared that this Committee suggested by Winston was going to be formed to help sort out all racing in NZ, both thoroughbreds and harness! has it ever been formed and anything discussed or just another load of baloney? Racing in NZ is well past the crossroads and is heading into demise bigtime unless they can have people actually do something about it! Personally speaking doesn’t really effect me there’s nothing more certain than a very reduced level of horse racing in NZ once the guaranteed funds from Entain are gone! Just reality but I believe we have a very short period to perform and not squander or it is over! Hopefully Brodie is incorrect but it does not appear to be pretty. -

The number of horses eligible for December’s Harness 5000 meeting at Ashburton continues to soar. Every week the Harness 5000 Progress Tracker is updated to show the number of horses who have reached the qualifying threshold for the meeting. Last week the figure was 117. The week before that it was 83. Now it is at 136. The “168” on the tracker signifies all 12 races having full 14-horse fields. It is however anticipated that around 350 horses will be in the mix come December, though this figure could fluctuate. The Harness 5000 is for trotters and pacers whose sire stood for an advertised retail service fee of $5,000 or less in the breeding season of conception and to be eligible horses must compete in at least five race day starts between July 3 – December 9,2025. On December 21 there will be $60,000 finals in each of the 12 categories. All will be 1700 metre mobiles. So far the biggest categories are for the 5YO and older Entires and Geldings. There are currently 31 pacers and 30 trotters. To see the Harness 5000 leaderboard click here View the full article
