  Time: 11:38 AM | Distance: 1100 m | Prize $ 40000
• Top Pick

  

  8 Miss Thunderdonk  

  F:   B(5)  W(55.0)

   ( J- Donovan Cooper )

   ( T- Anna Furlong )

  Well-backed in early markets, and it has looked solid at the trials. Stable has a good run with their debut runners, so it should run well.

  Main Danger

  

  9 Swift Thinker  

  Dividend : $1.60

  Place

  F:   B(3)  W(55.0)

   ( J- Jack Taplin )

   ( T- Kelvin Tyler )

  Getting down to 52kg should make it tough to beat, and it's another runner coming off some solid trial efforts. Could make a winning start.

  Next Best

  

  5 Ace App  

  Dividend : $9.10, $2.30

  Won

  F:   B(1)  W(55.0)

   ( J- Terry Moseley )

   ( T- Leda Beck )

  Bred to want more time and distance, but as the market suggests, it should be ready to make a positive debut.

  Consider

  

  1 Cracker Sans  

  F:   B(7)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Brett Murray )

   ( T- Meg Cunneen )

  Not too far away in a recent trial, and it's another runner that hasn't been let go by bookmakers. Should be right around the mark.

  Dividend : $4.10

  Place

  F:   B(4)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Rohan Mudhoo )

   ( T- Ebony Turner )

  Bred to be handy enough and it's sneaking under the radar at double-figure odds.

  Best "Each Way"

  

  8 Cheekylittlefella  

  F: 538X   B(2)  W(58.0)

   ( J- Tina Comignaghi )

   ( T- Sophie Price )

  It ran well to place two back, and having two runs at Riverton should only help its cause. Drawn to figure in the finish, and the odds appeal.

  Main Danger

  

  12 Bakers Dozen  

  Dividend : $3.60, $1.80

  Won

  F: X4502   B(12)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Kendra Bakker )

   ( T- Kelly Shearing )

  Put the writing on the wall when placing last time out, and dropping in weight should only help its cause. Well-backed to win.

  Next Best

  

  2 Taihoro  

  F: X20X2   B(6)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Daniel Bothamley )

   ( T- Robert Dennis )

  Two second placings from its last three starts, and it has been rock-solid in betting markets. Big weight, but good enough to carry it.

  Consider

  

  11 Neednoman  

  F: 29223   B(4)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Lee Callaway )

   ( T- Sally McKay )

  Looking to cap off three consecutive placings with a win, and it adds more depth to this field. Drawing well helps, so include.

  Longer Odds

  

  13 Just Henri  

  Dividend : $4.80

  Place

  F: 975X3   B(1)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Kin Kwo )

   ( T- Gay Robinson )

  Nothing wrong with its fresh up placing, and it gets all favours off the inside draw. Keep it safe.

• Top Pick

  

  8 Mamaea  

  F: 09539   B(1)  W(58.0)

   ( J- Jack Taplin )

   ( T- Kelvin Tyler )

  It has a good record at the track with four placings from six starts. Needs a win for its confidence, but it has a chance to win here.

  Main Danger

  

  5 Imperative  

  Dividend : $4.10, $1.90

  Won

  F: 08143   B(6)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Corey Campbell )

   ( T- Brian & Shane Anderton )

  A recent winner that could get back to that level of form. Not far away in two subsequent runs, and it has been best-backed to score.

  Next Best

  

  6 Words Of Mine  

  F: 01733   B(10)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Kendra Bakker )

   ( T- John & Karen Parsons )

  Nothing wrong with back-to-back third placings, and it's another value runner at odds. 2kg comes off its back.

  Consider

  

  11 Strong  

  F: 36364   B(13)  W(57.5)

   ( J- Tina Comignaghi )

   ( T- Bruce Tapper )

  Loomed to win before settling for fourth last time out. It's never too far away from the prize, and it only needs cover from out wide.

  Dividend : $5.10

  Place

  F: 88158   B(3)  W(58.0)

   ( J- Amber Riddell )

   ( T- Maurice Forde )

  Not the most consistent, but it's a winner this prep, so it can't be overlooked at the odds.

  11 Bodleian  

  F: 6X122   B(1)  W(55.0)

   ( J- Billy Jacobson )

   ( T- Stephanie Faulkner )

  A nice winner fresh up before adding back-to-back second placings to its record. Inside draw with a light weight, which adds to its appeal.

  Main Danger

  

  12 Blushing  

  F: 16841   B(14)  W(54.0)

   ( J- Tina Comignaghi )

   ( T- Bruce Tapper )

  Already a two-time winner this prep, including last time out. Nothing wrong with that form, and punters get better odds than expected.

  Dividend : $2.80

  Place

  F: 43423   B(8)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Corey Campbell )

   ( T- Brian & Shane Anderton )

  Three placings from its last four starts, and although winning form is tough to come by, it has enough upside to a win a race soon.

  Consider

  

  4 Monaghan Boy  

  Dividend : $4.30, $1.70

  Won

  F: 26134   B(3)  W(57.5)

   ( J- Floor Moerman )

   ( T- Kelvin Tyler )

  Won well three back, and it owns a win and a placing at Riverton. Coming back here should do its chances plenty of good.

  Longer Odds

  

  5 Vino Valentino  

  F: 57184   B(5)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Amber Riddell )

  2 Martell  

  F: 1114X   B(3)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Floor Moerman )

   ( T- Kelvin Tyler )

  Scored three consecutive wins last preparation, and it could return from a spell with a good performance, as the odds suggest.

  Main Danger

  

  3 Express Coup  

  Dividend : $4.10, $2.20

  Won

  F: 2X464   B(7)  W(54.0)

   ( J- Amber Riddell )

   ( T- Michael & Matthew Pitman )

  Better for three runs under its belt this prep, and with its fitness levels up, it could recapture its best form. Dropping to 53kg helps.

  Dividend : $3.20

  Place

  F: 39391   B(6)  W(54.0)

   ( T- Sally McKay )

  Turned its form around with a win at Riverton, and it could do the double. Worth including at the current each-way price.

  4 Miss Brittany  

  F: 408X0   B(2)  W(54.0)

   ( J- Tina Comignaghi )

  F: 84582   B(9)  W(54.0)

  7 Explode  

  F: X5471   B(5)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Brandon May )

   ( T- Bruce Tapper )

  Progressed nicely through its 4 runs this campaign to beat a good field at Riccarton a month ago. That will have done its confidence no harm and can go in again

  11 Four The Moment  

  F: X490X   B(11)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Amber Riddell )

   ( T- Kelvin Tyler )

  5yo out of the Tyler stable resuming after two runs last October. They were both in Stakes races so will find this a lot easier

  2 Linara  

  F: X4223   B(17)  W(60.0)

   ( J- Terry Moseley )

  We're backing Tina's judgment in this. We rated Queen Of Sheba a good chance but note Tina has decided to stick this one, which found the a600m in the Dunedin Guineas too far. Today's 1200m should suit

  6yo out of the Pitman stable and a inner of 9 races. Close up again in a strong field last time and if early support in the market is anything to go by, it won't be far away

  Trainer was confident of its chances at Invercargill two back and it bolted in by 6 lengths over an extended 2600m. The second that day, surprisingly, reversed the placings last time but this one had drawn wide out and was never a chance. Can bounce back
