Hawera - 20 January 2026
Race 7 @ 4.12pm - #7 Ragnar Lothbrok
He hit the line boldly on day 1 so looks a solid each way chance.
Race 9 @ 5.09pm - #2 Final Change, #3 Beta Prepare & #5 Rough And Ready
Final Change finished the race off well on Sunday and should have derived plenty of benefit from the outing. He could be the smokey.
Beta Prepare put in a few odd steps but wasn't far away. He'll go an honest race.
Rough And Ready was super. Being off equal marks with the horse that won on day 1 will change the dynamics. He's a key runner.
Race 10 @ 5.37pm - #3 Baileys Pitch
He rallied well once he found clear air on Sunday. The Night Agent is thrown in, but he's worthy of inclusion in trifecta/first four combinations.
