  10 Just A Drop  

  F: 68652   B(2)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Ashlee Strawbridge )

   ( T- Peter Fitzgerald )

  Came off the synthetic to put it a much improved run here three weeks ago, despite coming out of gate 10. 4kg claim and inside draw to advantage today

  Main Danger

  

  1 Perfect Pete  

  Dividend : $1.40

  Place

  F: X4354   B(6)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Jonathan Riddell )

   ( T- Andrew Campbell )

  Second in its first two starts, last campaign, it has been unable to add to that in 4 starts this campaign but does look well positioned here

  Next Best

  

  2 Carlow  

  F: 2   B(4)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Kavish Chowdhoory )

   ( T- Lisa Latta )

  No question that this one ran well on debut, finishing the race nicely off for second. It was a small field though so feel its a bit short in the betting

  Consider

  

  4 Richard Farrell  

  F: 3385X   B(8)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Liam Kauri )

   ( T- Suzy Gordon )

  Previous racing was in the north and, now resuming in the CD, will find things a bit easier

  Longer Odds

  

  5 Hill Billy  

  F:   B(1)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Kate Hercock )

   ( T- Kayla Macnab )

  6yo on debut and will no doubt benefit from this experience. But Kate will get the best out of it

  Dividend : $1.70

  Won

  F:   B(2)  W(55.0)

   ( J- Kelly Myers )

   ( T- Johno Benner )

  Just the four runners and a perfect opportunity for this one to get race day experience on debut. It showed itself to be an exciting prospect when winning its trial by 10 lengths!

  Main Danger

  

  3 Spellbound  

  Dividend : 

  Place

  F:   B(1)  W(57.0)

   ( J- George Rooke )

   ( T- Roger James & Robert Wellwood )

  Good trainers sending this down from the north and they too will be pleased that it gets a soft run first up. Won only trial to prepare

  Next Best

  

  2 Singletary  

  F:   B(4)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Masa Hashizume )

   ( T- Andrew Campbell )

  Trainer says he has the Karaka Millions as the target for this one and its two trial wins suggest it might be up to that. Concern is the very heavy track

  Consider

  

  5 Enchantment  

  Dividend : 

  Place

  F:   B(3)  W(55.0)

   ( J- Craig Grylls )

   ( T- Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )

  This may be a small field but it is competitive. This Te Akau runner on debut too and not out of it, having won its only trial

  Dividend : $2.00

  Place

  F: 31534   B(4)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Mereana Hudson )

   ( T- Ken Harrison )

  $50k stake money in this and not the strongest field for an Open class race. This one ran over a 3200m flat race so stamina won't be an issue. All 5 wins have come in the Heavy and rates a good EW chance here

  Main Danger

  

  6 Danjuro  

  Dividend : $3.70, $2.00

  Won

  F: 115X5   B(5)  W(54.0)

   ( J- Kavish Chowdhoory )

   ( T- Peter and Trent Didham )

  Nice run to be only 2 lengths off them at Whanganui and will be much better over the 2100m today

  Next Best

  Dividend : 

  Place

  F: 15453   B(1)  W(55.0)

   ( J- Samantha Collett )

   ( T- Allan Sharrock )

  Kept on well last time to finish third and one of the key players today. Has a good record in the Heavy

  Consider

  

  1 Royal Flower  

  F: 231X7   B(6)  W(60.0)

   ( J- Liam Kauri )

   ( T- Gail Temperton )

  A 7 time winner, it is the highest rated horse in the field. Better for recent run and more suited to this distance

  Longer Odds

  

  2 Jack Morrison  

  F: 14525   B(3)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Chris Dell )

   ( T- Mark Oulaghan )

  All wins have been on the synthetic so can't be expected to win but looks better chance than the other runner

  Place

  F: 8210   B(3)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Jack Taplin )

   ( T- Kevin Myers )

  On the quick back up from last Saturday, when it was never a contender after getting back early from gate 13. Now up to 2100m, we will start to see the best of it

  Main Danger

  

  5 Our Lady Brooke  

  Dividend : $1.30

  Place

  F: 12223   B(2)  W(58.0)

   ( J- Craig Grylls )

   ( T- Bill Thurlow and Sam O’Malley )

  It was our Top Pick at New Plymouth 12 days ago when, although keeping on to place third, we were a bit disappointed with its run. Superbly consistent though and sure to be there at the business end again today

  Next Best

  

  10 With Grace  

  F: 23321   B(9)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Kelly Myers )

   ( T- Kylie Hoskin )

  The strike rate for Kylie Hoskin these days is so good that we should probably have this one on top, but it's a tough call to expect it to go back to back after winning a maiden

  Consider

  

  1 Phats  

  F: 93X98   B(1)  W(59.5)

   ( J- Masa Hashizume )

  Dividend : $2.20

  Place

  F: 13123   B(9)  W(57.5)

   ( J- Sam McNab )

   ( T- Tony Pike )

  Tony Pike has placed this 4yo to win three and, with the trainer considering the track will be too demanding first up for Croupier, this is a good opportunity for another win. Gets the 3kg claim and just needs to overcome the wide draw

  Main Danger

  Dividend : $3.70

  Place

  F: 02115   B(3)  W(59.0)

   ( J- Jack Taplin )

   ( T- Kevin Myers )

  Kevin Myers has a promising galloper in this one and looks a good chance, especially with all its 3 wins having been in the Heavy

  7 Mr Jay Eight  

  F: 0749X   B(5)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Kelly Myers )

  13 Oneira  

  F: X2634   B(1)  W(54.5)

  F: 04417   B(6)  W(56.5)

   ( J- George Rooke )

  Australian import and one that the trainer thinks is pretty capable. Didn't handle the track on NZ debut, when short in the market, but came to NZ to get wetter tracks, so sticking with it
