Strong Kevin Tyler stable and only win was when it bolted in in the heavy. Obviously well thought of as subsequently been highly tried and , if it runs out the 2000m, we think it wins

The ability was there last year when it won both trials before going well on debut in September. Was spelled after one more run and now resumes. Has experience and age over most of its opponents and that should get it home

Two runs since relocating from the north. Won on a Heavy 10 at Pukekohe last April and these conditions can assist today. Quick back up with Tina taking the reins, both positives

F: 05X93B(2)W(57.5)

4 In Vogue
F: 7558XB(8)W(57.5)

Taking a chance on this as the field in general is so poor. Previously trained in the north and hasn't raced since June. Kylie Williams booking is a positive indication
