There's a horse registered in NZ with the same name, so they had to change it. It's something NZ horses often have to do when they go over to Australia (my favourite was when they changed a horse called Jetski to Jetskiwi).

There are some nice horses going to that race - Mufhasa, Il Quello Veloce, Altered Image, Ruud Van Slaats, Fully Fledged, and a young horse called Coup Align - he's had 7 starts for 5 wins, all of those in a row this season. He won his last one by 6 lengths in 1:08.4. He hasn't beaten much so far, but exciting horse anyway.
