F: 573B(10)W(58.5)

A very competitive maiden here but we fancy this Stephen Marsh runner to continue its progress and win. Seemed to relish the Heavy in its last start and Michael McNab sticks

( J-Triston Moodley )

Only 1 1/2 lengths behind our Top Pick last time, this one could well give the Marsh stable the quinella. Well drawn and improved in the Heavy last time, it won't be far away
Next Best
10 Rollins
F: 766B(8)W(58.5)
( J-George Rooke )

The stable is down to run this and was just in behind its stablemates here two weeks ago. George Rooke is the key to its chances

Dividend : $1.40
Place
F: 580X2B(4)W(58.5)
( J-Kelly Myers )
( T-Ralph Manning )
Always considered to have good prospects but never really meeting those expectations, it had its first run, after a spell, from the in-form Ralph Manning stable just over two weeks ago. In being beaten just a nose, it looks to have improved already

F: 684X3B(7)W(58.5)

Te Akau runner so locally trained and has been close up in last three races, all of which have been Stakes races. Back to R65 should be too good
