  Dividend : $1.50

  Place

  F: 2X4   B(1)  W(56.0)

   ( J- Leah Hemi )

   ( T- Terri Rae )

  Leah takes over today and this trainer/jockey relationship is becoming a formidable combination. Takes improvement from resuming run, and won a trial prior to that

  10 Student Of War  

  F: 3   B(8)  W(56.0)

   ( J- Brett Murray )

   ( T- Michael & Matthew Pitman )

  The Pitman stable invariably has winners on this track and in this one, they have a chance. Drawn wide again though

  7 I'm Feeling Lucky  

  F: 74704   B(7)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Tina Comignaghi )

   ( T- Michael & Matthew Pitman )

  Pitman's also run this 4yo and although an 11 start maiden, it was only 3/4 length behind its more fancied stablemate today

  Place

  F: 7X222   B(1)  W(54.0)

   ( J- Tina Comignaghi )

   ( T- John & Karen Parsons )

  Certainly has the formline to be breaking maidens today, having finished second 5 times from its 9 starts, including three from 3 starts since resuming. Strong stable, top jockey and rails draw suggests it has a lot going for it

  Main Danger

  

  12 Origin Of Love

  Won

  F: 3   B(5)  W(54.0)

   ( J- Jasmine Fawcett )

   ( T- Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )

  Te Akau have given this one time, with trials dating back over 6 months. Had its first run, when favourite, 3 weeks ago our our Top Pick beat it almost a 1/2 length. There won't be much between them today, you'd think

  6 Montauk  

  F: 377X5   B(9)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Kylie Williams )

   ( T- Terri Rae )

  Unlucky to have drawn out a bit because it's resuming run was good, and on the back of a winning trial

  Consider

  

  2 Wrote The Amazing  

  F: 65   B(4)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Abdul Najib )

   ( T- Michael & Matthew Pitman )

  Pitmans have stuck with their improved apprentice again today and the 3kg claim brings it into calculations. Well drawn

  1 Forever Young  

  F: 09254   B(2)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Brandon May )

   ( T- Michael & Matthew Pitman )

  Yet another Pitmans runner, and at good odds. Hard to believe its a 31 start maiden as it has the ability to be winning as its 4 seconds testify to. Eye catching run last start

  1 El Vaquero  

  F: 82211   B(6)  W(58.0)

   ( J- Brett Murray )

   ( T- Michael & Matthew Pitman )

  Ran two good seconds to a Te Akau runner back in June and then given a short break. With that one out of the way, has shown winning form in bot its runs this campaign and looked to have upside

  Main Danger

  Won

  F: 333X1   B(7)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Corey Campbell )

   ( T- Lance Robinson )

  Highly tried in its 2yo campaign and running well, it had a spell from May. Resumed after winning a trial to get home in a tight finish 3 weeks ago and we think it might be quite smart

  Next Best

  

  4 War Of Silence  

  Dividend : $1.30

  Place

  F: 1   B(8)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Jasmine Fawcett )

   ( T- Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )

  Justified the warm starting price when winning here on debut two weeks ago, for the Te Akau stable. Sure to be in the mix today but wide draw the challenge

  Consider

  

  3 Landman  

  F: 18   B(3)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Jack Taplin )

   ( T- Bill Thurlow and Sam O’Malley )

  Waverley trainer that has experienced good success on the track. This promising 3yo stepped up in class in the Whanganui Guineas last time, having been an impressive winner on debut

  5 Fourofus  

  F: 42X22   B(2)  W(56.0)

   ( J- Floor Moerman )

   ( T- Kelvin Tyler )

  Two close up finishes this campaign and now third up will be at peak fitness. Good enough to be within 1 1/2 lengths of our Top Pick last start

   ( J- Jasmine Fawcett )

  Te Akau are reported to be excited about this one's race debut, having raced the mother with success. Should be too good in what isn't a strong field

  F: 250X1   B(12)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Jack Taplin )

   ( T- John Blackadder )

  Went off the boil a bit towards the end of its last campaign, after promising more when second to classy Pivotal Ten at the beginning of the year. However, returned from a spell looking stronger and duly won, albeit in a tight finish. Has won a trial since. Has to overcome wide draw but good apprentice up

  Won

  F: 107X2   B(6)  W(57.5)

   ( J- Jack Taplin )

   ( T- Danny Crozier )

  Through a formline with Airpark Hustler, earlier in the year, and a terrific run when resuming, it will be very hard to beat today, with fitness on its side

  Main Danger

  

  1 Airpark Hustler  

  F: 1420X   B(3)  W(60.0)

   ( J- Kylie Williams )

   ( T- Michael & Matthew Pitman )

  The Pitmans thought well enough of this gelding last campaign to take it up to the G2 Wellington Guineas and it was only 5 lengths from the winner. Spelled after that and, assuming it has trained on, that form will be good enough to take it close

  13 Sarissa  

  F: 05X23   B(4)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Tina Comignaghi )

   ( T- Nick Wigley & Kayla Milnes )

  5 Gruffalo  

  F: 1X   B(1)  W(59.0)

   ( J- Billy Jacobson )

   ( T- Robert Dennis )

  6 Candycane  

  F: 516X1   B(6)  W(54.0)

   ( J- Kylie Williams )

   ( T- Terri Rae )

  Such was its impressive win when resuming from a 5 month spell here two weeks ago that we expect it to go back to back. Really liked the way it finished that race off and the extra 200m should be ideal

  Dividend : $2.20

  Place

  F: 940X4   B(4)  W(58.0)

   ( J- Brett Murray )

   ( T- Michael & Matthew Pitman )

  Went out favourite to beat Candycane last time but, even with Sam Weatherley up, it was not going to make up the ground to be winning. However, has an impressive 7 wins from just 16 starts so has to be rated a big chance

  F: 62323   B(7)  W(54.0)

  F: 12182   B(1)  W(56.0)
