VOLKSTOK'N'BARREL RUNS IN BRISBANE AND ROCKNROLLA IN AUCKLAND ON SATURDAY 4TH JUNE

Race 3 at Eagle Farm, Brisbane sees Volkstok'n'barrel start in the Pages Event Equipment Hire Eagle Farm Cup Group 2 for $269000 at 3.22 pm NZ time  on Saturday 4th June. He will be ridden by James McDonald and jumps from barrier 4. The 4 year old Tavistock gelding strikes a small feild and a wet track. The forecast is for heavy rain on the day . Lets hope it holds off until later in the day. Owned by Rosemont Stud, Ashley Goodwin, Jim Gibbs, Ann Gibbs, Chris Gibbs, Garry Cossey and Donna Logan and a winner of $1.2 million. If he handles the track he can win. His best wet track result was probably his win in the Bonecrusher Stakes on a Slow 8 , but class told. Hardest to beat Maurus.

Race 8 at Ellerslie sees Rocknrolla line up in the Chevalier Produce 1400m Rating 75 Benchmark at 3.40 pm . Ridden by Matt Cameron from barrier 2. The 5 year old Towkay mare is owned by Donna Logan, Mark Treloar, Kim O'Riley, Len Reed, Tane Beckham, Nathan Pene, John Frew, Myra Langstone, Jan and Dave Mein and Colin Thomson. The rail moves out from 3m to 7m and this is a big drop in class for Rocknrolla after running in a listed race last start. She goes well second up and is a big improver. Has been working very well and should finish in the first 3.
