It's A Blaze Making NZ Debut at $1.25 Today
Aussie import It's a Blaze makes his NZ Debut in Race two at Addington today and the bookies are expecting big things with a $1.25 win quote.
Its a Blaze has won three races in Victoria, a middle distance maiden heat and final at Cranbourne followed by a 650m win. Here are the links to those videos:

It's a Blaze was then sold to NZ and joined the Dave and Jean Fahey kennel. He stepped out in a sprint trial at Addington on February 5 and blazed out the 295m in a stunning 16.85s - matching the time posted by Trojan Hoarse when winning the Group I Galaxy on the course in November.
Up against C1 middle distance opponents today, the $1.25 may not last long...
