Gore Harness Picks - Saturday, 23 August


Gore Harness Race 1
7 Daisy Diana

There will be a few heart in the mouth moments early here because 7 DAISY DIANA can be a little cantankerous in the early stages of the score up. Safely through that though and she's shown she's more than capable of winning a maiden wand won't get any better chances than this. 
Selections: 7-5-1-4-2 

Gore Harness Race 2
7 Raspalia

Decent drop back in grade today for 7 RASPALIA after a couple of tough runs in the past couple of weeks. With the key dangers drawn on the second row gets a chance to find the front or at least a forward position and can go close. 
Selections: 7-14-13-5-10 

Gore Harness Race 3
5 Rangitata

Judging by the debut effort to win, Phil Williamson has unearthed another potential trotting star in 5 RANGITATA. Simply monstered his rivals and showed a professional attitude in doing so. Hard to see why he won't step out here and repeat the effort. 
Selections: 5-7-4-9-6 

Gore Harness Race 4
7 Rise Up N Dance

TIP OF THE DAY
You wouldn't want to play a game of chess with him but surely today is the day for 7 RISE UP N DANCE. He's the best horse in this race by some margin but often doesn't bring his best. Expect a confident drive and that in turn should net a confident result today. 
Selections: 7-9-3-2-6 

Gore Harness Race 5
5 Seaside Brucie

Expecting a sharp improvement from the first up run last week at Addington from 5 SEASIDE BRUCIE. He'll come on leaps and bounds from that and can really strike today. Few first starters so with experience on side could blast across and take control of this. Good race for him. 
Selections: 5-2-7-3-6 

Gore Harness Race 6
1 Party Up Denario

It's been a great return to racing from 1 PARTY UP DENARIO this campaign with two excellent efforts. Primed for this final and comes up with the perfect draw to work from. Should be able to hold up and get the right trip and from there be hard to beat. 
Selections: 1-15-10-11-3 

Gore Harness Race 7
13 Tarragindi

Expect the brilliance of 13 TARRAGINDI to show up here tonight but it won't be easy off the 10m handicap and the unruly. He's one of the better three-year-olds in the country and really should show that here as long as he doesn't receive any bad luck. 
Selections: 13-11-8-10-4 

Gore Harness Race 8
3 She's Crunchy

A brilliant start to the career from 3 SHE'S CRUNCHY with two wins from as many starts. Lands a good draw finally and will look to use it and take bad luck out of the equation here. Might stay in front too and make the main danger work. Off to Australia from next week so looking to sign off in style. 
Selections: 3–4-8-2-6 

Gore Harness Race 9
1 Black Pat

A mistake last time out put an end to any chance 1 BLACK PAT had of success but the prior effort for second was excellent. Few gear changes should help with the manners and over the 2200m here could jump run and leave them all chasing a shadow. 
Selections: 1-12-3-5-8 

Gore Harness Race 10
14 Major Art

Chance that right down the bottom of the book, 14 MAJOR ART might be the forgotten runner of this field but shouldn't be ignored. Very talented pacer who has often cost himself but when he's right he can be quite potent. Will need the right run at the right time but can outfinish them all. 
Selections: 14-7-3-1-4 

Gore Harness Race 11
8 Always Dreaming

Lovely first up win from 8 ALWAYS DREAMING. Really dour performance and he's only going to take benefit from that. With the run under the belt and a small field there's options available. Can sit back or get into it and either way is the one to beat. 
Selections: 8-7-4-1-6
