Top Pick
9 No Bizz
Dividend : $1.60
Place
F: 03X72B(8)W(56.5)
( J-Kate Hercock )
( T-Nelson/McDougal )
Comes off a second placing and it shouldn't take too much longer to get it done. Hercock is riding in good form.
Main Danger
11 Iffidapunt
Dividend : $2.20
Place
F: X4738B(10)W(56.5)
( J-Billy Jacobson )
( T-John Bary )
Ran third on this track two back, so anything close to that run is good enough. Drawn wide but it has time to find cover.
Next Best
13 Redana
F: 64627B(6)W(56.0)
( J-Masa Hashizume )
( T-Lisa Latta )
In good hands with Latta and it hasn't been missed with bookmakers. Looks like another improving type.
Consider
10 Tuesday
Dividend : $6.50, $2.10
Won
F: 84426B(1)W(56.5)
( J-Madan Singh )
( T-Ilone Kelly )
Did well to run second two back and a repeat of that would be good enough. Gets the inside draw.
Longer Odds
12 Unusual Rose
F: NoneB(7)W(56.5)
( J-Lisa Allpress )
( T-Fraser Auret )
Can't count out the trainer/jockey combo with the debutante.

Top Pick
11 Underline
F: 53B(2)W(56.0)
( J-Craig Grylls )
( T-Fraser Auret )
Better when third at Otaki last time out and that should be a good form guide. The money has come for it.
Main Danger
7 Anaroa
Dividend : $5.00, $1.90
Won
F: 403B(1)W(58.0)
( J-Kozzi Asano )
( T-Guy Lowry & Leah Zydenbos )
Mixing its form but that was a tidy placing at Hastings last time out. Drawing the inside could be enough.
Next Best
8 Prometheus
Dividend : $3.30
Place
F: 5068B(13)W(58.0)
( J-Masa Hashizume )
( T-James/Wellwood )
The stable is running hot and it only needs a touch of luck from the wide barrier to go close. Each-way odds.
Consider
1 Zackery
Dividend : $2.60
Place
F: 0X329B(7)W(58.5)
( J-Courtney Barnes )
( T-Matthew Eales )
Better than what it showed at Trentham and the conditions here could help. Allow another chance.
Longer Odds
4 Triathlon
F: 0B(5)W(58.5)
( J-Crystal Lindsay )
( T-Gail Temperton )
Terrible on debut but there is good specking for it, so don't leave it out.

Race 3 - SARGENT MOTORCYCLES MAIDEN 2YO
Time: 1:26 PM | Distance: 1000 m | Prize $ 18500
Top Pick
1 Detrimental
Dividend : $1.50
Place
F: NoneB(5)W(57.5)
( J-Jonathan Riddell )
( T-John Bary )
Well-backed on debut and the tote is the best betting guide. Usually pays to follow a well-backed runner from this stable.
Main Danger
6 Kansas Storm
F: 8B(5)W(55.5)
( J-Warren Kennedy )
( T-Walker/Bergerson )
It didn't fire on debut behind its stablemate, but this is easier. Needs to improve, but having Kennedy riding is a bonus.
Next Best
2 Sizzle
F: 202B(6)W(55.5)
( J-Lisa Allpress )
( T-Roydon Bergerson )
It already owns two second placings, so there is plenty to like about its form. Both placings came on the track.
Consider
5 Velton
F: 3B(2)W(55.5)
( J-Matthew Cameron )
( T-Bryce Newman )
Didn't show much on debut but it comes off a trial win in January. Could fire up with that run under its belt.
Longer Odds

3 Connello
Dividend :
Place
F: 5X5B(3)W(55.5)
( J-Lily Sutherland )
( T-Lisa Latta )
Not far away behind some smart types at Trentham. Could be worth considering at the odds.

Top Pick
11 Shesellsseashells
F: NoneB(6)W(56.0)
( J-Michael McNab )
( T-Benner/Wynyard )
Did it easily at the trials and this stable knows how to get them up and running. Watch for any late betting moves.
Main Danger
9 Rosalita
Dividend : $2.40
Place
F: 7033XB(5)W(56.0)
( J-Lily Sutherland )
( T-Guy Lowry & Leah Zydenbos )
It ended last prep with consecutive third placings before spelling. Nothing wrong with that form, so put it on top.
Next Best
5 Rabega
Dividend : $1.80
Place
F: 2B(7)W(58.0)
( J-Lisa Allpress )
( T-Fraser Auret )
Only a half-length behind the winner on debut, so that was a nice effort. They usually improve quickly from this stable.
Consider
3 Fonsi
F: 22723B(3)W(58.0)
( J-Joe Doyle )
( T-Patrick Campbell )
Six starts for five placings, so that form is tough to overlook. Joe Doyle rides and it could produce another consistent effort.
Longer Odds
8 Zalia
F: NoneB(12)W(56.5)
( J-Warren Kennedy )
( T-John Bary )
Solid enough trial form to warrant attention, so include at the odds.

Top Pick
9 Avaya
F: 149X5B(2)W(55.0)
( J-Kozzi Asano )
( T-Guy Lowry & Leah Zydenbos )
Fresh up and it could hit the ground running. Goes well enough fresh to handle this field.
Main Danger
1 Swazi
Dividend :
Place
F: 08192B(4)W(59.5)
( J-Jonathan Riddell )
( T-John Bary )
Not always the most consistent but it's another runner good enough to put this field away. Well-backed to win.
Next Best
2 Voice Over
Dividend : $2.70
Place
F: 23X10B(5)W(58.0)
( J-Toni Davies )
( T-Peter Didham )
Won its only start on the track two starts back. Didn't fire at Trentham but this is a completely different race.

Dividend : $7.00, $3.10
Won
F: 36860B(6)W(57.5)
( J-Joe Doyle )
( T-Lisa Latta )
Only a one-time winner but it's better than that. Odds have halved, which is a good sign of things to come.
Longer Odds
4 Vesmart
F: 82645B(3)W(57.5)
( J-Madan Singh )
( T-Ilone Kelly )
Not too far away at Trentham and it doesn't need to improve too much.

4 Achieve
Dividend : $1.70
Place
F: 10X20B(5)W(56.5)
( J-Masa Hashizume )
( T-James/Wellwood )
Not much went right for it last time out but it was much better when placing fresh up. A Group 2 placegetter, so it demands respect.
Main Danger
7 Fourty Eight
F: X11X3B(3)W(56.0)
( J-Craig Grylls )
( T-Fannin/Schofer )
Showed pace when winning consecutive races last preparation. Fair when third last time out, so consider on that.
Next Best
10 Lilly Laguna
F: 62436B(10)W(55.0)
( J-Warren Kennedy )
( T-John Bary )
A four-time winner from 29 starts. Gets in with only 55kg on its back and punters get each-way odds.
Consider
1 Love For All
F: 0X558B(6)W(60.0)
( J-Jim Chung )
( T-Bryce Newman )
It needs a lift a touch but it should find this race more to its liking. It has form on the board in previous campaigns.
Longer Odds
2 He No Opilio
F: 04390B(1)W(58.0)
( J-Ulrika Holmquist )
( T-Mark Oulaghan )
It can be tough to follow but getting the inside draw helps its cause.
