Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted October 22, 2021 Journalists Share Posted October 22, 2021 In-form rider Craig Grylls will partner promising filly Aris Aris (NZ) (Contributer) for Stephen Autridge and Kris Shailer in the Gr.3 Matamata Veterinary Services Soliloquy Stakes (1400m) at Matamata on Saturday as she builds towards the Gr.1 Barneswood Farm New Zealand 1000 Guineas (1600m). The daughter of Contributer has had just the two starts for a good win at Taupo over 1100m before finishing runner-up over 1200m to the highly-touted Pareanui Bay at Te Rapa last start. “That form from Te Rapa seems to be stacking up pretty well. She is a really nice filly although she is nothing to look at, she is only a wee little thing,” Grylls said. “She wouldn’t win a beauty pageant but she has got a big ticker and she really wants to do it. “I have ridden her in her work and it has been really good. She will give a good account of herself on Saturday. “She is on a path towards the 1000 Guineas, as most of the fillies in the race are. Once she gets to a mile it will be right up her alley. She switches off beautifully in the run and just does everything you want her to do.” View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
