  2 Georgiewood  

  F: X820X   B(11)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Amber Riddell )

   ( T- Kevin Myers )

  Kevin Myers runner that won a trial well 3 weeks ago, on a Heavy track. That was impressive after a 9 month spell and this 5yo now looks likely to run up to its potential

  Main Danger

  

  1 Damiano  

  Dividend : $2.20

  Place

  F: 36247   B(2)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Ace Lawson-Carroll )

   ( T- Lisa Latta )

  Runner up twice in 7 starts so the ability is there. OK in the Heavy at Whanganui

  Next Best

  

  3 Go Trigger  

  F: 69493   B(8)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Trevor Bau )

   ( T- Raymond Connors )

  Another Whanganui runner and it showed much improved form on its home track lat Saturday. Quick back up is a good sign

  Consider

  

  7 Possess  

  F:   B(7)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Kelly Myers )

   ( T- Kevin Myers )

  Kevin Myers also trains this first starter. Good run for second at the trials but that was on a Good track, so taking it on trust today

  Longer Odds

  Won

  F: 8X079   B(10)  W(58.5)

  Dividend : $4.70

  Place

  F:   B(6)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Madan Singh )

   ( T- Fraser Auret )

  Stable that generally has them 'ready to win' when taking them to race day for the first time. This one won its last trial to prepare for debut

  Main Danger

  

  3 Bundy  

  F:   B(12)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Frankie Barrett )

   ( T- Kevin Myers )

  Interesting to see Kevin Myers put up this young apprentice up today, given that Amber Riddell rides for the stable. He's astute though and this 4yo on debut is reported to have ability

  1 Crafty Colin  

  Dividend : $1.90

  Place

  F: 4X972   B(4)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Crystal Lindsay )

   ( T- Rosie Buchanan )

  24 start maiden that has in fact run some good races and might have won a couple. Second last time and not without a chance

  Consider

  

  8 Snowflake  

  F: 26X44   B(8)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Kelly Myers )

   ( T- Guy Lowry & Leah Zydenbos )

  Third up this campaign today and capable of being in the finish. But last two runs have been in the Heavy and it hasn't shown much

  Longer Odds

  

  9 Navy Bride  

  F: 676X5   B(7)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Elle Sole )

   ( T- Shaun and Hazel Fannin )

  Behind Ma Te Wa when resuming and that one's very promising. Will be improved for resuming run at Whanganui

  7 Turn It Up  

  F: 335X   B(8)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Bruno Queiroz )

   ( T- Roydon Bergerson )

  First run since February but looked sharp when winning a trial at the end of last month. That was in the Heavy so that's positive and we like the booking of this champion jockey

  Main Danger

  

  1 Boy  

  Dividend : $1.90

  Place

  F: 2639X   B(3)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Frankie Barrett )

   ( T- Allan Sharrock )

  Consider

  

  5 Good Craic  

  F: 24222   B(4)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Amber Riddell )

   ( T- Lisa Latta )

  Simply can't leave this one out of your reckoning, so honest it is and the good form its showing

  2 Alcaraz  

  F: 75X39   B(11)  W(58.5)

  F: 26X52   B(1)  W(58.5)

  Won

  F: 8X003   B(2)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Joe Nishizuka )

   ( T- Paul Moseley )

  If you like Autumn Beauty's chances, you have to like this one, and it probably represents the 'value'. Finished alongside that one last time and drawn alongside today

  3 Starpello  

  F: 95639   B(6)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Ace Lawson-Carroll )

   ( T- Lisa Latta )

  Just the 5 runs so open to improvement. Best run to date was two back and the track was a Heavy8 that day

  Consider

  

  2 On Shaw  

  F: 375X4   B(3)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Jonathan Riddell )

   ( T- Craig Lupton )

  13 Not So Unusual  

  F: 5   B(16)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Kate Hercock )

  1 Kick On  

  F: 44557   B(5)  W(60.0)

   ( J- Frankie Barrett )

   ( T- Kevin Myers )

  Kevin Myers might be in for a good day. He likes to win Cup races and to be honest, this is not a great field..4kg claimer takes the reins

  Main Danger

  Dividend : $1.20

  Place

  F: 64238   B(2)  W(55.5)

  F: 512   B(4)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Kavish Chowdhoory )

   ( T- Gavin Sharrock )

  Impressive winner two back so it was a surprise to see it beaten at Whanganui. Trainer has a few good 2yo's so we're backing him to have his best chance out for this $80k Listed race

  Main Danger

  Won

  F: 41   B(6)  W(55.0)

   ( J- Bruno Queiroz )

   ( T- Lisa Latta )

  Deserved winner at long odds over Country Salon last time and considering that was its only second race, won't be at its peak yet, and clearly loves the Heavy

  8 Ayumi  

  F: 2   B(1)  W(55.0)

   ( J- Kelly Myers )

   ( T- Hollie Wynyard )

  Still a maiden but this field doesn't have much depth. Ran well on debut and senior rider takes the reins, with rails draw to advantage

  Consider

  

  9 Portland  

  F: 42   B(3)  W(55.0)

  4 Perfectsister  

  F: 08384   B(12)  W(58.0)

  F: 847X5   B(2)  W(56.5)
