  1 Toruk Makto  

  F: 19928   B(4)  W(59.0)

   ( J- Triston Moodley )

   ( T- Bruce Wallace & Grant Cooksley )

  We've stuck with this one in the past and we're going to again here, in a tough race to start the day. This talented apprentice is back up north and adds the winning edge so often

  Main Danger

  

  2 Poetic Justice  

  F: 68477   B(11)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Opie Bosson )

   ( T- Tony Pike )

  We have in fact selected this Tony Pike runner a number of times, only for it to come up short of the mark. But connections have turned to Opie today and he's riding well

  Dividend : $2.00

  Place

  F: 6X483   B(3)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Warren Kennedy )

  Close up in both three runs this campaign and was just 3 1/2 lengths away when over this distance for the first time last start

  Consider

  

  10 Protheatrics  

  F: 01036   B(6)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Matthew Cameron )

   ( T- Debbie Sweeney )

  Taken to Trentham two weeks ago and although not a winning chance then, the travelling can stimulate them

   ( J- Vinnie Colgan )

   ( T- Ken & Bev Kelso )

  Beat our Top Pick by 4 1/2 lengths last time so has to go in as a chance if we're liking that one

  12 Scarlett Spell  

  F: 72   B(11)  W(55.5)

   ( J- Vinnie Colgan )

   ( T- Maxim & Samantha Van Lierde )

  Was the one to chase Atkins home here 3 weeks ago and that one was a certainty beaten at Waverley on Wednesday, franking the form. Has been backed down from $11

  Main Danger

  

  8 Miss Parker  

  F: 22242   B(4)  W(55.5)

   ( J- Matthew Cameron )

   ( T- Kylie Hoskin )

  Has to be a big danger after finishing second in 5 of only 8 starts. Well drawn and strong rider in Matt Cameron is a good booking

  Craig Grylls rode last start and managed to get within 1/2 length of Arthur. Should be thereabouts again

  Place

  F: 57497   B(8)  W(55.5)

   ( J- Jasmine Fawcett )

  Won

  F: 1X450   B(1)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Corentin Berge )

   ( T- Shaun & Emma Clotworthy )

  2 1/2 lengths behind Scolera two back and considering it came out of gate 12 that day, it was a good effort. Promising and has rails draw over the 1100m

  Main Danger

  

  8 Panther  

  Dividend : $1.50

  Place

  F: 2X1   B(3)  W(57.5)

   ( J- Rory Hutchings )

   ( T- Lance O'Sullivan & Andrew Scott )

  Very impressive run to win at Tauranga 4 weeks ago when coming out of gate 12 and winning with a bit in hand. That was when fresh up so the month since that run shouldn't be a problem

  Next Best

  

  3 Scolera  

  F: 122   B(2)  W(58.0)

   ( J- Jasmine Fawcett )

   ( T- Jim Collett )

  A win and two seconds from just three starts and better for its resuming run on New Year's day, says it will be in the first three here today

  Dividend : $2.10

  Place

  F: 21327   B(8)  W(57.5)

   ( J- George Rooke )

  You literally can't discount a Stephen Marsh runner these days and this one really is a chance. Wide draw the challenge

  6 Liechtenstein  

  F: 34X35   B(9)  W(57.5)

  Dividend : $1.10

  Place

  F: 122   B(2)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Rory Hutchings )

   ( T- Tony Pike )

  This looks like an opportunity for this one to get back in the winners enclosure. Sure has plenty of ability but has come up against decent types in its last two races. Tony Pike makes it his best of the weekend

  Main Danger

  

  8 Liguria  

  Dividend : $10.30, $2.20

  Won

  F: 4   B(4)  W(55.0)

   ( J- Warren Kennedy )

   ( T- Lance Noble )

  A trial winner prior, although it shows it ran fourth on debut, it was in fact only a 1/2 length from the winner. We so often see this stable's runners win second up

  Next Best

  

  2 Singletary  

  F: 2   B(9)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Opie Bosson )

   ( T- Andrew Campbell )

  Well bred colt by Satono Alladin and, after winning two trials, ran well on debut for second. Will be winning soon

  Consider

  

  9 Bourbon Time  

  F:   B(8)  W(55.0)

   ( J- Wiremu Pinn )

   ( T- Stephen Marsh )

  Stephen Marsh runner on debut. Won its second trial of three on a Soft track and sure to be well prepared

  Longer Odds

  

  11 Hawea  

  F: 6   B(10)  W(55.0)

   ( J- Vinnie Colgan )

   ( T- Graham Richardson & Rogan Norvall )

  Certainly exceeded expectations on debut. Although 6th, it was a bunched finish behind the impressive winner and it was only just over 1 1/2 lengths away

  15 Hey Dana  

  F: 1768   B(1)  W(55.5)

   ( J- Warren Kennedy )

   ( T- Lance Noble )

  Caught the eye when winning nicely on debut and connections have subsequently run it in two Stakes races out of its next three starts. Not far away and will find this R65 somewhat easier. Rails draw

  Main Danger

  

  4 Top Dollar  

  F: 10841   B(6)  W(60.0)

   ( J- Opie Bosson )

   ( T- Shaune Ritchie & Colm Murray )

  Got home under a good ride from Opie last time, beating a galloper we have a bit of time for. That was its first run at middle distance and will be better for that

  Next Best

  

  1 Gippsy God  

  F: 12542   B(9)  W(60.0)

   ( J- Triston Moodley )

   ( T- Lance O'Sullivan & Andrew Scott )

  Has been much improved since stepping up to middle distance and has been close up in every race since winning its maiden 5 starts ago

  11 Leave A Light On  

  F: 0X336   B(11)  W(57.0)

  Best "Each Way"

  

  11 Road To Paris  

  Dividend : $2.20

  Place

  F: 71L6   B(17)  W(57.5)

   ( J- George Rooke )

   ( T- Roger James & Robert Wellwood )

  Despite there being 18 runners, we have two runners dominating the market. And the favourite is too short for us so, despite it drawing out in the car park, it does offer the value with that risk aspect. Furthermore, it should have won two back when shying and dropping Masa

  Main Danger

  

  7 Aksil  

  Dividend : $1.70, $1.20

  Won

  F: 182   B(10)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Opie Bosson )

   ( T- Simon & Katrina Alexander )

  Just beaten a head when resuming from a short break four weeks ago and now Opie rides. Prior form was good, including in a Stakes race

  8 Horrie  

  F: 39221   B(11)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Jasmine Fawcett )

   ( T- Moira & Kieran Murdoch )

  Showed good strength to win its maiden in the Heavy last time and will much prefer this Soft track. Looks to own a bit of ability

  Consider

  

  4 The Exponent  

  F: 13X82   B(6)  W(59.5)

   ( J- Warren Kennedy )

   ( T- Stephen Marsh )

  Out of the high flying Stephen Marsh stable, it defied the odds to go close last time, and will have upside from that

  Longer Odds

  

  20 Arundel Castle  

  F: 20X80   B(8)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Hayley Hassman )

   ( T- Darryn & Briar Weatherley )

  Stepped up to this distance last time and produced a good run, finishing behind The Exponent. Third up now so fitness at a good level

  Dividend : $1.20

  Place

  F: 53441   B(14)  W(54.0)

   ( J- Warren Kennedy )

   ( T- Stephen Marsh )

  Has always looked like a galloper that can eventually run with the best and last start's dominant win suggested to us that it's well on the road to doing so

  Main Danger

  

  6 The Underbelly  

  F: 400X3   B(5)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Opie Bosson )

   ( T- Cody Cole )

  Previously a very handy galloper when trained in New Plymouth, it relocated to Cody Cole during its spell and its resuming run showed that it is heading back to form. Good strike rate with 7 wins from 20 starts

  Next Best

  

  8 Trust In You  

  F: 68062   B(2)  W(55.5)

  5 Tisse  

  F: 21216   B(1)  W(57.5)

   ( J- Rory Hutchings )

  F: 72126   B(1)  W(62.0)

   ( J- Opie Bosson )

   ( T- Stephen Marsh )

  Really can't see this one beaten if at its best, and Stephen Marsh will be sure to have it well tuned up. Scratched because of Heavy track at New Plymouth last week. Opie takes the reins today

  Main Danger

  

  2 Jaarffi  

  F: 72332   B(4)  W(58.5)

  Consider

  

  6 Mercurial  

  F: 6X569   B(2)  W(53.0)

  F: X1721   B(6)  W(56.5)

  2 Big Wave  

  F: 23502   B(9)  W(59.5)
