NZH - Addington - Race 7

THE LAZARUS EFFECT (9) resumes after great success last prep, winning on five occasions and culminating in a second over 1 ¹¹/16m at Ascot Park Raceway on December 19. Generally hits the ground running at the first run back. Tactics will be crucial from this wide draw. Expecting a bright start to the campaign. JUMAL (8) is a talented colt first up from a break of three-and-a-half months who generally wastes no time finding form and is yet to have his colours lowered when resuming. Scored a fine win over 1 ³/16m at this track to kick off last campaign. Will need a bit of luck negotiating a very wide starting position. Has the right credentials to play a major role. SONOFAMISTERY (3) comes right into contention after scoring last start by 7 metres at this track over 1 ³/16m. BAZOOKA (10) has been about the mark of late and must be respected, the latest offering a sound fifth at Rangiora over 1 ?m.
