Early mail and Blackbook Update for Hawkesbury on April 30.

HAWKESBURY SATURDAY

RACE 4 (1) KURO: Returns to his original trainer Joe Pride after a stay with the Freedmans in Melbourne and expecting a bold fresh showing after a strong trial win at this course on April 18. He’s the class act in this field, being a G1-placed multiple stakes winner, and has the right draw to camp on a certain hot pace and run home over the top of them down the long Hawkesbury straight.

RACE 8 (10) DENMAGIC: Talented filly is taking on the colts but rates highly with the weights in her favour after her strong efforts in Group company over the carnival. Last time out she found the line gamely from the back at only her second start over 1400m when fifth in the G3 James Carr at Randwick when the leaders got al the favours. She will get her chance here with a genuine pace.

RACE 9 (9) TRAFALGAR: This race provides another ideal step for this promising 3YO as he builds towards the Brisbane carnival. Recorded his third win in only five starts when he resumed with a strong victory over 1300m at Warwick Farm and can only be better over this longer trip with the benefit of that run behind him.

BLACKBOOK UPDATE

Selected Horses from April 23 (Rosehill; Caulfield)

OH SO UNFAIR: Ridden for luck. Would have gone close with a clear run.

UNEQUIVOCAL: Luckless in a leader dominated race.

ZEDFAST: Found the line from hopeless position. Going well.

GRUNDERZEIT: Will take plenty of benefit from this strong return.

BANTRY BAY: Another good import set to make his mark..

DIVINE MR ARTIE: Never got a crack. Total forgive.
