European import Igraine has hardly put a foot wrong since joining Robert Priscott's Te Awamutu barn this year and she is set to tackle stakes company for the first time in the Listed Jakkalberry Classic (1950m) at Rotorua on Saturday.
The daughter of Galileo has won three of her four starts in New Zealand for Brent and Cherry Taylor of Trelawney Stud and Priscott believes she can continue that impressive strike rate on Saturday.
"I'm very pleased with the way she has been going," Priscott said. "Her last start was against ordinary opposition, but she did very well [winning by five-and-a-half lengths over 2100m at Awapuni]."
Igraine has had a month between runs and her trainer said the only slight concern was stepping back in distance to 1950m on Saturday.
"She's fine, she worked well this morning," he said.
