  F: 705   B(2)  W(56.5)

  F: 0X73   B(14)  W(58.5)

  Place

  F: 2   B(2)  W(55.0)

   ( J- Craig Grylls )

   ( T- Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )

  Craig Grylls rode 4v winners yesterday and is in demand from a number of trainers. He rides for Te Akau in this and it does look to have the best ability

  Main Danger

  

  5 Final Time  

  F:   B(7)  W(55.0)

   ( J- Tina Comignaghi )

   ( T- John & Karen Parsons )

  On debut. Trainers have two in this but the fact Tina has the reins on this filly, it would suggest it's their best chance

  F: 2   B(5)  W(55.0)

  Ex northerner now with Pitman stable. Is capable and will be well prepared for southern debut

  11 Lady Georgiana  

  F: 899X5   B(7)  W(55.0)

   ( J- Craig Grylls )

   ( T- David Walsh )

  Another ex northerner and ran well to be just over a length away on first run in the south two weeks ago. Will be better for that, and the talent of Wiremu Pinn

  Dividend : $1.90

  Place

  F: 27207   B(4)  W(57.5)

   ( J- Joe Doyle )

   ( T- Jason Coutts )

  Was an $86 shot when running in a Listed race here last weekend. Wasn't far away and on quick back up, a good sign

  Consider

  

  4 Pizarro  

  F: 3100X   B(8)  W(57.5)

   ( J- Akshay Balloo )

   ( T- Bridget Woodsford )

  Interesting ex norther now on debut in the south too. A 6yo and has only had the 6 runs, winning once. Resumes from 6 month spell and might surprise

  8 Thedreamsnotover  

  F: 88195   B(2)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Matt Cartwright )

   ( T- Richard Didham )

  Matt Cartwright is riding extremely well and is a good booking for this 5yo mare. Inside draw should see it get a good journey

  F: 22322   B(1)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Kate Hercock )

   ( T- Jamie Bullard )

  With 5 seconds from just six starts, it clearly has the best credentials to be winning this. Inside draw to advantage

  F: 445X2   B(8)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Tina Comignaghi )

   ( T- Vicky Ramhit )

  Just the three runs in the north before being bought into this southern stable, having its first run at Ashburton. Behind a smart one, that won by 5 lengths that day and went on to win a $65k race here last weekend. That's a pretty good form-line

  4 Student Of War  

  F: 3569   B(16)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Daniel Stackhouse )

   ( T- Michael & Matthew Pitman )

  Pitman runner with just the 4 starts and it must be going in the right direction, as they stepped it up to a strong Stakes race last time. Unfortunate to have drawn the outside gate

  Consider

  

  13 Canterbury Flight  

  F: 7X4   B(11)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Donovan Cooper )

   ( T- Ross Beckett )

  Also drawn wide but has to go into your reckoning on the back of its resuming run, when just 3/4 length behind the winner. Good effort considering it was only its second start, and first for 10 months

  Longer Odds

  

  8 Let Me Loose  

  F: X4358   B(10)  W(56.5)

  Dividend : $1.20

  Place

  F: 19X18   B(1)  W(56.0)

   ( J- Matt Cartwright )

   ( T- Terri Rae )

  Quality filly that has raced in, and won, Stakes races in the north and now relocated to this good trainer. Interesting to see her book the services of Matt Cartwright for its southern debut too

  Main Danger

  

  6 Ocean Bay  

  F: 14   B(3)  W(55.0)

   ( J- Amber Riddell )

   ( T- Anne Herbert )

  Has to be a big danger as we thought it was a certainty beaten two weeks ago at Ashburton, when stuck on the rails behind the leaders all the way

  Dividend : $1.50

  Place

  F: 6X184   B(6)  W(55.0)

  Just over 1 1/2 lengths behind the winner in a G3 two weeks ago, and a repeat of that puts it right in the mix

  Consider

  

  4 Knockingatthedoor  

  F: 2   B(7)  W(56.0)

  Time will tell how strong the field was this one ran against on debut but, nonetheless, it was a promising debut, and in a Stakes race

  8 Roc 'N' Ready  

  F: 78X02   B(5)  W(55.0)

   ( J- Craig Grylls )

  Some value in this Craig Grylls ride here, as it raced against the top 3yo's in the south two back. Was paying $86 then so ignore that and ran better when back to R65 last time

   ( J- Tina Comignaghi )

  Kevin Myers won with this Whanganui trained galloper in a R75 on the weekend and, not surprisingly, is on the quick back up. Tina takes over from the apprentice and adds the value

  Dividend : $2.10

  Place

  F: 13123   B(1)  W(55.0)

   ( J- Daniel Stackhouse )

   ( T- Michael & Matthew Pitman )

  Pitman runner and comes into this on the back of a length defeat when over the shorter 1600m last time. Will find the 2000m more suitable and hard to beat, especially with rails draw to advantage

  Consider

  

  8 Sacred Dream  

  F: 25X02   B(8)  W(54.0)

   ( J- Bruno Queiroz )

   ( T- Robert Dennis )

  Unlucky to have the photo finish go against it last time, when Bruno rode for the first time. He sticks and their chances are improved over an extra 400m today

  Longer Odds

  

  1 Harlech  

  F: 0X605   B(10)  W(60.0)

   ( J- Kendra Bakker )

   ( T- Pam Gerard )

  Less than a length away at Ashburton when over 1600m and will be better now up to 200m. Astute trainer and EW odds appear generous as it's not a field with a lot of depth

  F: 51034   B(2)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Craig Grylls )

   ( T- Bill Thurlow and Sam O’Malley )

  Trainers look to have this one peaking at just the right time, with its run 11 days ago tuning it up nicely for this. When connections call up Craig Grylls for their runners you know they're a big chance and Gryllsy is in great form

  3 Charbano  

  F: 33653   B(11)  W(60.5)

  F: X5261   B(1)  W(53.0)

   ( J- Matt Cartwright )

   ( T- Tony Pike )

  Tony Pike runner that took advantage of a disappointing run by the favourite to win at Ellerslie 8 days ago. Trainer has always felt it had a lot of ability and now might be the time we see it. Rails draw and Matt Cartwright give us a lot of confidence

  14 Archaic Smile  

  F: 2X455   B(7)  W(53.0)

   ( J- Masa Hashizume )

  A 2 1/2 length fifth to the impressive Captured to Love last Saturday is the best form-line for this and we're not surprised to see it backed down from an opening $12

  Place

  F: 9X211   B(9)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Leah Hemi )

   ( T- Terri Rae )

  Certainly can't fault this one on current form and stepped up to 2000m last time to win in good style. Our concern is the drop back to 1600m now

  9 Stonybreck  

  F: 3231L   B(4)  W(55.5)

   ( J- Craig Grylls )

   ( T- Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )

  Things went wrong for this Te Akau runner when coming out of the gates here two weeks ago, with Opie being dislodged. It has been running well and was well fancied that day, and has to be a chance with Craig Grylls now in the saddle

  4 Matscot  

  F: 4X703   B(13)  W(57.5)

   ( J- Joe Doyle )

   ( J- Tina Comignaghi )

   ( T- Kevin Myers )

  If anyone knows how to prepare a runner for 2600m on the flat, it's Kevin Myers. He has two in the race but, noting that Tina rides this one, we assume it's considered the best chance
