Top Pick
Stella Splendida
F: X7110B(3)W(58.5)

Won
F: 345B(13)W(56.0)
( J-Leah Hemi )

Main Danger
Channa

( J-Tina Comignaghi )

Top Pick
Tranquila
F: 752B(11)W(56.0)
( J-Warren Kennedy )
( T-Walker/Bergerson )
Had excuses last time and was unlucky not to finish closer. May of not won but if she gets luck from the draw I think she is a big winning chance

Tetbury
F: 5876B(8)W(56.0)

Musketeer
F: 74B(10)W(58.5)

Place
F: X8573B(13)W(56.5)

Came to win the race at Riccarton five weeks ago and then just run out of it. Will be winning very soon, maybe today
Consider
Pearl Opulence
F: X6526B(3)W(56.5)
( J-Kendra Bakker )
( T-Lance Robinson )
Three lengths second to a good type over 1600m two back and now stepping up to middle distance. 4kg claim helps chances

The Arctic Blast
F: 90402B(2)W(57.0)
( J-Brandon May )
( T-Andrew Carston )
Took a good one to beat this 5yo gelding last time and this looks its chance for first win on the turf. Has been runner up 5 times so the ability is there

F: 31326B(10)W(59.0)

Top Pick
Aerial Blue
Dividend : $2.10
Place
F: 40948B(1)W(57.0)
( J-Jasmine Fawcett )
( T-Lance Robinson )
Surprisingly slow out over 1400m here four weeks ago and that proved its undoing as, although finishing really well, was held up in traffic. Jasmine Fawcett takes the reins today and can get the job dene from good gate
Main Danger
Ceddy Smith
F: 42237B(6)W(57.5)
( J-Tina Comignaghi )
( T-M & M Pitman )
Pitman runner that begs to deceive. The ability is there and this might be its day. Will be better for recent run and Tina takes the reins

F: 0217XB(14)W(59.5)
( J-Kozzi Asano )
( T-B & R Wilson )
Showed itself to be capable last campaign and was impressive in winning a trial in preparation for resuming from break. Just has to overcome wide draw to feature
Consider
Caitlyn Jay
F: 78885B(7)W(58.0)
( J-Yogesh Atchamah )
( T-Andrew Carston )
Ran at Invercargill six days ago and now on the quick back up, a good sign. That run was first show of form for a while
Longer Odds
Sauvage
F: 60160B(12)W(57.5)
( J-Corey Campbell )

Top Pick
Bello Mio
F: 55652B(2)W(59.5)
( J-Warren Kennedy )
( T-Walker/Bergerson )
Te Akau runner that went a massive race here four weeks ago, coming from near last to finish just over a length from the winner. Warren Kennedy takes over now and the early money has come
Main Danger
Spot On Time
Dividend : $5.80, $2.00
Won
F: 621B(8)W(59.0)
( J-Kylie Williams )
( T-Terri Rae )
Top trainer Terri Rae looks to have an exciting prospect here judging by its three runs to date, the last a comfortable win here four weeks ago. Just a 4yo with only three starts, there's improvement to come
Next Best

Dividend : $1.90
Place
F: 12743B(8)W(57.0)
( J-Kylie Williams )
( T-Jamie Bullard )
Three wins and five seconds is testimony to this one's ability. Kylie Williams rides and we don't think dropping back to 1400m will be a problem
Main Danger
Miss Layla
F: X4932B(7)W(60.0)
