Place
F: 155XB(4)W(59.0)
( J-Sam Weatherley )
( T-Darryn & Briar Weatherley )
Won on debut and then spelled in April, after three runs. The last one was in a Stakes race so clearly they think it has ability. Good draw
Consider
12 Litteral
F: 22416B(10)W(57.0)
( J-Jasmine Fawcett )
( T-Ken & Bev Kelso )
Won two back and opened up favourite for this. But its form has been in the Heavy and its drawn out wide so we think there's better value in some others
Longer Odds
13 Live On Air
F: 88230B(2)W(57.0)
( J-Matt Cartwright )
( T-Danica Guy )
Looks the odds player in this. Although 10th at Ellerslie last week, was only 4 1/2 lengths behind the winner and now on the quick back up

Won
F: 32X53B(1)W(58.5)
( J-Wiremu Pinn )
( T-Stephen Marsh )
Finished close up in a WFA three weeks ago and now runs in an Open. Sat on the pace then and rails draw avails it of that opportunity here; it could be a winning one
Main Danger
2 Wild Night
F: 049X6B(5)W(60.0)
( J-Opie Bosson )
( T-Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )
Te Akau runner that was never going to be a winning chance when resuming, coming out of gate 12. Better for the run today and good draw, with Opie taking over
Next Best
5 Gospodin
F: 65635B(2)W(57.5)
( J-George Rooke )
( T-Jim Pender )
At long odds when only 2 1/2 lengths behind Glamour Tycoon last time. On that, these EW odds are enticing
Consider

Place
F: 4125XB(6)W(55.0)
( J-Tayla Mitchell )

Dividend : $11.60, $2.90
Won
F: 52321B(2)W(57.0)
( J-Joe Doyle )
( T-Stephen Marsh )
Stephen Marsh runner that has only been out of the first three on one occasion, and that was on debut 5 starts ago. It has winning form on firmer tracks than Heavy, to its advantage
Main Danger
2 He Who Dares
F: 125X2B(5)W(57.0)
( J-Opie Bosson )
( T-Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )
Te Akau runner with Opie on the reins and showed itself to have a lot of potential, in 3 runs as a 2yo. Showed it had trained on when just beaten in first run back
Next Best
3 Magic Carpet
F: 331B(4)W(57.0)
( J-Jonathan Riddell )
( T-Stephen Marsh )
Sprung a surprise when winning the Hawkes Bay guineas last time. Stephen Marsh brings Jonathon Riddell north to ride, given he rode so well in that race
Consider
11 Too Sweet
F: 63X45B(6)W(55.0)
( J-Vinnie Colgan )
( T-Roydon Bergerson )
Hasn't been far off the top fillies in both runs this campaign, and that needs some consideration

Place
F: 24636B(4)W(54.5)

4 What A Charma
F: 43431B(7)W(58.5)
( J-Lynsey Satherley )
( T-Mark Irwin )
Is running its career best form as an 8yo, winning last time when beating Gigi in the Heavy. But has won in the Soft too

8 Above The Clouds
F: 31713B(2)W(55.5)
( J-Wiremu Pinn )

Beaten less than 1/2 length when resuming at Matamata. Up to 2100m today and that should be ideal

3 Grey Area
F: 1000XB(2)W(58.5)
( J-Warren Kennedy )
( T-Roger James & Robert Wellwood )
Won at its second career start but didn't place in its other 4 starts as a 3yo. But was highly tried and actually ran in the Derby. It looked like its spell had matured it when it won a trial to prepare for this
Main Danger
6 Ramblin' Rose
F: 5X327B(8)W(58.0)
( J-Joe Doyle )
( T-Darrell Hollinshead )
The key to this one is that Joe Doyle resumes the partnership today. He always gets the best out of his rides and is EW value
Next Best
4 Interplanetary
Dividend : $2.30
Place
F: 06X63B(7)W(58.5)
( J-Craig Grylls )
( T-Conor and Sarah Fahy )
Third up after being only 3/4 length away last time. Trainers have two in the race and they've turned to Craig Grylls to bring the winning touches
Consider
2 Ruach
F: 25072B(3)W(59.0)
( J-Samantha Collett )
( T-Antony Fuller )
Putting in as this 7yo has been a consistently good performer over the years, and has to go in on that. But not sure its a winning chance, and too short in the market for us
Longer Odds
8 Ortem Legacy
Dividend : $2.40
Place
F: 27X50B(9)W(57.0)
( J-George Rooke )
( T-Conor and Sarah Fahy )

Best "Each Way"
7 Myakkabelle
F: 323X5B(6)W(57.0)
( J-Vinnie Colgan )
( T-Ben & Ryan Foote )
Here's a 4yo mare you're going to see a bit of in the winner's circle this season. Terrific run when finishing just over 2 lengths away at Ellerslie, when having its first start since running in the Oaks
Main Danger
4 Bourbon Proof
Dividend : $10.10, $3.00
Won
F: 85X66B(9)W(58.5)
( J-Matthew Cameron )
( T-Stephen Marsh )
From the in-form Stephen Marsh stable and fought well to the line after leading last start. Third up and hard to beat today
Next Best
8 Queen Zou
Dividend : $3.50
Place
F: X10X4B(7)W(57.0)
( J-Matt Cartwright )
( T-Stephen Marsh )
Another Stephen Marsh runner and wasn't far away, in a competitive field, when resuming. Matt Cartwright rode in the trials and takes the reins today
Consider
6 El Viento
F: 40X07B(14)W(58.0)
( J-Warren Kennedy )
( T-Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )
Three lengths behind Queen Zou 3 weeks ago so has a bit to make up, but is a Te Akau runner so will be improved
Longer Odds
1 Accidental Tourist
F: 3X778B(2)W(60.0)
( J-Opie Bosson )
( T-Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )
Looked like it was going to rapidly rise through the grades two seasons back but has never fulfilled that promise it showed. However, its two recent runs this campaign suggest its improving and we note Opie is on the reins today, rather than Te Akau's more fancied runner
