The Big E 🏇

We head to Ellerslie today with two runners representing the stable, hoping to bookend the card 👇

💨 LOFTY WIND (J. Joe Doyle)
She comes here for just her second start after an unlucky debut at Ruakaka. Drawn well and expected to get cover just behind the speed, we're hoping she can finish strongly in a strong maiden race.

🎌 YOKOZUNA (J. Tom Wigram (a3)
He gets back onto a better surface and carries just 55.5kg after Tom's claim. We're hoping he can settle with cover and bounce back with a much-improved run.

Best of luck to the connections of both our runners today! 🤞🏇

Sunday Session at Te Rapa 😎

We head down the motorway to Te Rapa today with two runners entered early in the day.

⚠ CIVIL WAR (J. Tom Wigram (a3)
He rises to 1500m here today for this second-up assignment. The track conditions should suit, and the 3kg claim will be a help as he will have to overcome a sticky draw.

🐴 PARFAIT DIMANCHE (J. Tom Wigram (a3)
The flashy filly makes her raceday return to start her 3YO campaign after multiple promising runs at stakes level as a 2YO. While she hasn't drawn an ideal barrier, she should be right in this, with the 3kg claim a big bonus. Her recent trial was pleasing, and we hope for a top run today.

Best of luck to connections in both runners!

Go on, Ollie 💪

Logan Racing was honoured to sponsor young Ollie, who recently went to the AIMS Games to play Hockey for Matarau School. Congratulations to Ollie and the team, who finished in 10th place out of 57 teams competing across the tournament.

Glad we could play a small part in helping Ollie have a successful week!

Spring in the Air 🍃

We are headed to Ellerslie today for a big day of racing, with one runner on the card.

🔔 BELLE REBELLE (J. Masa Hashizume)
She is returning to the races today after a break from a solid 2YO campaign that saw her claim a win on debut and a stakes placing here at Ellerslie. Her barrier today is a bit sticky, but with some luck in running, we are hoping to see her run home strongly with an eye on some big 3YO spring features later in her campaign.

Best of luck to connections!

Thursday Racing at Te Aroha 💟

Our team is heading to the track under the mountain today with 6 runners entered for this rescheduled meeting today.

🐲 DRAGONSTONE (J. Kyle Wilson-Taylor)
As we expected, he has continued to develop and improve with each outing to date, and his last start was his best run yet. He was unlucky at a crucial stage that day, and he finds a race that should suit him today. A leading rider and a nice draw are postives, we feel he can run another top 4 today. Hopefully he can do his big sister proud as she lines up in Race 7.

🎸 ROCKING (J. Warren Kennedy)
She is such a consistent mare who tries her best every run. Dropping back in trip for today isn't ideal, but she has had a little bit of space between runs and will relish today's conditions. Her draw isn't ideal, but she is reunited with Warren Kennedy, who has a good association with her. She can run a bold race here, even with a few factors against her.

🧑‍💼 PRESIDENT FIR (J. Erin Leighton)
His trial performances show us he has ability, but he was always going to take a lot of improvement from his debut run over 1200m. Up to 1400m here today should suit him as he progresses with each run. We think he will settle back in this field and look for him to run on late.

👑 KING OF THE JUNGLE (J. Tom Wigram (a3)
A big son of Tarzino, he has benefited from a good spell as he continues to fill out his frame. His recent trial was pleasing, and as he progresses over longer distances, we expect to see him improve each run.

🎎 YOKOZUNA (J. Kyle Wilson-Taylor)
A horse we know has great ability, but he has put in some head-scratching runs recently. Last start showed he was trending in the right direction and we think he has shown enough to suggest he is getting back to what we know he is capable of. The booking of a top jockey will help him navigate the tricky draw.

💄 GIRLZGIRLZGIRLZ (J. Tom Wigram (a3)
She proved she was back to herself last start on the softer footing, and her run that day was super. The 3kg claim will be a big assist here, and her draw looks like it will be the ideal place to be at this stage of the day. The step to 1400m should be ideal for her, and we feel she can be right in this.

Best of luck to the different groups of connections involved with all our runners today!

September in the North 🏖

The team makes the trek north to Ruakaka today, where we have 7 runners engaged early in the day.

💥 BOOM TOWN (J. Tom Wigram (a3)
A lovely son of Darci Brahma making his raceday debut here. He has trialled well to date and will appreciate stepping straight to 1600m as he is a horse who we see enjoying staying trips in time. He hasn't drawn ideally, so we will let him find his feet early and run on late in the race.

🧠 LOOSE THINKING (J. Erin Leighton)
He is returning after a break here and has shown good physical improvement from his first prep. His recent trial was pleasing, and we feel he will continue to develop with time and as his races get out over more ground. His draw is sticky here, so expect him to get back and run on late.

🏝 LONG ISLAND (J. Kyle Wilson-Taylor)
She has been racing super consistently lately and comes here to another race that shapes similarly to her recent outings. She has the benefit of a low draw and a top jockey on board, so she should be able to roll forward and be right near the speed early. She has been knocking on the door for a while now, and we feel a win is not too far away for her.

🎶 CHOREOMANIA (J. Craig Grylls)
She put in two lovely runs in her first prep and has returned to the stable in great order. Her recent trial will bring her on nicely and with some good form around her first two runs, we feel she has good upside from today. The 1600m is a good trip for her here, and she should run a bold race.

💨 LOFTY WIND (J. Craig Grylls)
We have been super impressed with her efforts at the trials to date, and she comes here in a good space. Making her raceday debut, she has a lovely inside draw and NZ's leading rider engaged. She will likely be right on speed in the run and can be right in this finish.

🔫 CIVIL WAR (J. Craig Grylls)
A strapping son of American Pharoah who is also returning to the races after a spell. His most recent trial was very good, and on that effort we are happy with how he is progressing. He will benefit from the book of Craig Grylls, as he has a sticky draw to contend with. While we feel he can go a good race fresh up, he will benefit from today's run fitness-wise.

🏔 SIERRA NEVADA (J. Jasmine Fawcett)
The daughter of Time Test is another runner on debut here today, and she is also a runner of ours that will benefit from the experience. Her last trial was very pleasing, and we feel she will improve with the run and fitness. Her wide draw isn't ideal, so she will likely be ridden cold and look to find the line late in the race.

Best of luck to all of our connections with runners today!

Seaside Saturday 🏄

We head north to Ruakaka once again today with a team of six runners entered on the card.

🚣 LARIUS LACUS (J. Tom Wigram (a3)
She is resuming here after a spell. She comes into this without a trial and up in Rating 75 grade, so it won't be an easy task, but she will improve immensely for the run.

🐴 STRALSUND (J. Tom Wigram (a3)
He ran one of his best runs to date here last start over 1,600m. He led that day and was brave to the line. From his low draw, and with the 3kg claim, we expect another similar run today.

🛫 DEPARTURE (J. Kyle Wilson-Taylor)
He is another who last raced here over 1,600m and based on his two most recent runs, we expect another similarly solid run from him. He gets the services of a top jockey here today, which he will need from his sticky draw.

🏝 LONG ISLAND (Masa Hashizume)
Rounding out the stables trio in this race, she has been super consistent with her last 4 runs, and we feel she will relish the spacing between races for this. Her low draw is a big assist to her as she is likely to settle near the early speed in the run.

🤝 PACT (J. Sam Collett)
A last-start winner here at Ruakaka, she is looking to make the step up to 1,600m and to Rating 65 grade today. She has been working very well since her last-start win, and we feel the low draw and in-form jockey staying aboard give her every chance of running another bold race today.

🎌 YOKOZUNA (J. Tom Wigram (a3)
His recent racing this prep has been below what we know he is capable of, but we feel since the last run he has shown us enough at home to suggest he can run an improved race here. He is another who has drawn well in gate 1, and the 3kg claim will help his chances.

Wishing all connections with runners involved all the best today!
