Te Akau TV - Boxing Day Special
Date: 24 Dec 2022
A VERY Merry Christmas from David, Karyn, Mark and the entire Te Akau team!
It doesn't stop for our dedicated team who today still reaches the stables and arrives at the stud in the early hours to train our horses and care for them - we thank them hugely for their efforts for our equine friends who always come first!
We've got a little Christmas treat for you today with our Boxing Day edition of Te Akau TV. Mark and the team prepare a strong team for a day out at Pukekohe Park and Otaki following on from a great day at Matamata on Friday with four winners including Bello Mio, Savoir Faire, Fierce Flight and Supreme Khan.
Mark covers off the runners at Pukekohe Park and Otaki which include Prise De Fer in the Group One Cambridge Stud Zabeel Classic. He is accompanied by Fashion Shoot, Shepherd's Delight and Synchronize in the Listed Hallmark Stud Handicap, Skew Wiff in the Group Two ATR Eight Carat Classic, and Wild Night and Kabugee in the Listed Shaw's Wire Ropes Uncle Remus Stakes.
We are also excited about three of our 2YO's stepping out aiming to bank extra Karaka Million dollars, and experiencing the track where the big race will be staged.
Mark will attempt to surpass Assistant Trainer Sam Bergerson's tipping prowess after Sam got Savoir Faire home on Friday.
As a side note, we missed talking about She's Outrageous in Race 1 at Pukekohe Park. We were able to discuss her chances with Sam Bergerson at the end of our Matamata preview on Friday. Please view this here.
Good luck to all runners, owners and connections - eat drink and be merry for tomorrow - we race!
