Resumes from a 4 month spell, having raced against the best 3yo's last campaign. With Amber adding her talent, might go well fresh up
Main Danger
1 Bakhita
F: 53062B(3)W(59.0)
( J-Ruvanesh Muniandy )
( T-Jason Coutts )
Twice a winner in Australia, this 4yo import makes her NZ debut and a win wouldn't surprise. One to follow
Next Best
2 Leedox
Dividend : $1.50
Place
F: X000XB(6)W(59.0)
( J-Terry Moseley )
( T-Stephanie Faulkner )
Another import, this one from Hong Kong. Ran second in a trial to prepare and, although likely to be winning soon, will benefit from its race day debut here in NZ
Consider
7 Game Duke
F: 77725B(7)W(57.0)
( J-Yogesh Atchamah )
( T-Len & Lacy Stewart )
A 7yo with just the one win but has been second 6 times, so well in here
Longer Odds

F: 60797B(1)W(56.5)

Top Pick
4 Radiant Reach
F: 16084B(5)W(55.5)
( J-Amber Riddell )
( T-Kelvin Tyler )
The Tyler/Riddell partnership could reap success here again as this is not a strong field and the early favourite is looking to drop back from 1800m. All three wins have come on a Heavy10
Main Danger
2 Where's Wally
Dividend : $1.90
Place
F: 73153B(8)W(61.5)
( J-Ayush Mudhoo )
( T-Andrew Carston )
Has been ever so consistent over the winter period and could be the one to test them most in this
Next Best
1 Bauble
Dividend : $3.10, $1.40
Won
F: 77169B(6)W(61.5)
( J-Donovan Cooper )
( T-Brian & Shane Anderton )
Is rather short in the market, albeit it is 7yo with good ability. Dropping back from 1800m today but is a 3 time winner on this track
Consider
7 Ataahua Pipedream
F: 54877B(4)W(54.0)
( J-Kylie Williams )
( T-Graham Eade & Brooke Kincaid )
Loves the Heavy stuff and note that connections have turned to Kylie Williams to get the best out of it today
Longer Odds
5 She's So Reliable
F: 1685XB(1)W(54.0)
( J-Abdul Najib )
( T-Ainsley McLeod )
First run in over 8 months. Is an ex northerner and on southern debut and best indication of its chances will be on the tote

Top Pick
Best "Each Way"
11 Orsome Dude
F: X0623B(6)W(57.0)
( J-Ruvanesh Muniandy )
( T-John & Karen Parsons )
Good run to be beaten just a length over this distance last time and looks the EW value in the race
Main Danger
1 David Moss
Dividend : $7.40, $2.40
Won
F: 34268B(11)W(59.0)
( J-Krishna Mudhoo )
( T-Jo-Ann Gordon )
Has always promised a lot more wins than the two it has produced but won't get a better opportunity than this field
Next Best
4 Gangsta Granny
Dividend : $2.90
Place
F: 02907B(2)W(57.5)
( J-Yogesh Atchamah )
( T-Ashley Frye )
Previously a course winner and just 4 lengths off the winner last start. Inside gate and this Heavy10 will suit better
Consider
7 Shaking Stevens
F: X0630B(9)W(57.5)
( J-Brandon May )
( T-Stephanie Faulkner )
watch the tote on this one because it has been punted a few times in this campaign. Wide draw the concern
Longer Odds
14 Sacred Mist
F: 7X259B(8)W(56.0)
( J-Floor Moerman )
( T-Terry Kennedy )
Good run when resuming three weeks ago and will have taken improvement
