RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: The Group 1 Maori Mile has this year been boosted to a record $100,000 in prizemoney and it has drawn megastar mare KEAYANG ZAHARA (3) as she goes in pursuit of the $500,000 Summer of Glory bonus for any trotter who can win four of the big features across the series, including the Great Southern Star Final on February 14. She’s a good thing’s price and deservedly so as defeat here would be an almighty shock. Her key dangers appear OLLIVICI (2), who was in great form before losing all rhythm and galloping last time out, and defending back-to-back champion ARCEE PHOENIX (5), who is first-up from a flop in the Dominion Handicap across the Tasman in November.
