Main Danger
7 Watermelon Sugar
F: X43X5B(3)W(55.5)
( J-Masa Hashizume )
( T-Michelle Bradley )
Not a bad run when resuming 3 weeks ago and will be better for that. Masa rides again
Next Best
13 Furston
Dividend : $2.10
Place
F: 4B(5)W(54.5)
( J-Rihaan Goyaram )
( T-Andrew Forsman )
Albeit the run was down in Hawera, it was just over 1 1/2 lengths from the winner on debut. Strong stable and has to be in the mix
Consider
19 Hollaback Girl
F: 20XB(2)W(55.5)
( J-Ace Lawson-Carroll )
( T-Shane Crawford )
Resumes after a 5 month spell but considering it just missed on debut then, it could show up fresh. Good draw
Longer Odds
15 Quick As Mercury
F: 7B(8)W(55.5)
( J-Hayley Hassman )
( T-Benjamin King )
A bit of money around for it on debut and it ran well, to be just 3 lengths behind Gin And Bear It. This young trainer is getting the wins

Top Pick
5 Confectionist
Dividend : $1.80
Place
F: 468X2B(9)W(57.5)
( J-Matt Cartwright )
( T-Stephen Marsh )
This Stephen Marsh runner matured nicely from it 4 month spell, to be beaten just over a length at Matamata two weeks ago. Improves from that
Main Danger
2 Rybakina
F: 98222B(7)W(57.5)
( J-Michael McNab )
( T-Shaune Ritchie & Colm Murray )
Just the 6 career starts and has run second in the last three of those. That suggests a win isn't far away
Next Best
4 One Bold Floozie
F: 0432B(4)W(57.5)
( J-Matthew Cameron )
( T-Robbie Patterson )
Strong trainer/jockey partnership and travels up from New Plymouth for this, which is interesting. Craig Grylls ride and it has the form to be there at the business end
Consider
1 Gracetheace
F: 6L9X2B(10)W(57.5)
( J-Joe Nishizuka )
( T-Gavin Opie )
Lost its rider when it last ran on this course, but that was back in October and it showed its wellbeing when second 3 weeks ago. Extra 100m to suit
Longer Odds
15 La Florida
Dividend : $3.40
Place
F: 420X9B(5)W(57.5)
( J-Masa Hashizume )
( T-Shane Crawford )
Taken down to Whanganui for resuming run 3 weeks ago and finished the race off well over 1200m. This extra 200m should suit

The 'Day's Best'
4 Dark Duke
F:B(4)W(58.5)
( J-Masa Hashizume )
( T-Roger James & Robert Wellwood )
When asked to name his best for the weekend, the trainer didn't hesitate in giving out this one. Certaibnly looked the part when winning its latest trial
Main Danger
3 Fleetwood
F: 258X8B(1)W(58.5)
( J-Ace Lawson-Carroll )
( T-Moira & Kieran Murdoch )
Won a trial before finishing in behind Curved Glory last start ... and we think that one could be quite useful
Next Best
1 Requisite
F: 02334B(6)W(58.5)
( J-Matthew Cameron )
( T-Kristine Stead )
Has certainly been an improved galloper in the last few months and there isn't much depth in this field. Ran a terrific race last time, considering its wide draw
Consider
2 Pure Lotus
Dividend : $1.60
Place
F: 33628B(9)W(58.5)
( J-Michael McNab )
( T-Tony Pike )
Has to go in as if it runs up to its run two back, when just beaten by the u8nbeaten Sabatini, then it will be in the places
Longer Odds
9 Bellavinsky
F: 55X40B(3)W(56.5)
( J-Corentin Berge )
( T-Emma Faber )
Better judged on its run two back, a race that has brought out subsequent winners

Top Pick
6 Classic Grace
Dividend : $2.30
Place
F: 569X4B(1)W(56.5)
( J-Matt Cartwright )
( T-Benjamin King )
This young trainer has been working the magic with his runners and this one might be his next. Not far away when resuming, it has drawn the rails today
Main Danger
8 Misissipi Gambler
Dividend : $2.70, $1.35
Won
F: 3450XB(2)W(56.5)
( J-Michael McNab )
( T-Ben & Ryan Foote )
Did OK in its first campaign and now resumes after a three month spell. This stable gets them ready fresh up too but we're still surprised to see it so tight in the market
Next Best
10 Desert Jewel
F: 5B(7)W(56.5)
( J-Amber Riddell )
( T-Andrew Forsman )
Nice run on debut at Matamata two weeks ago and with improvement, might go close
Consider
14 Wedding Belle
F: 8XB(6)W(56.5)
( J-Masa Hashizume )
( T-Roger James & Robert Wellwood )
First run in a year so presumably has had its injury issues. Two trial to prepare and sure to improve for this run
Longer Odds
13 Socotra
F:B(3)W(56.5)
( J-Ace Lawson-Carroll )
( T-Donna Logan )
With a number of overnight scratchings, the 'roughies' come into play. This could be the one to have an interest in here
The stable have been very patient with this 3yo filly as it is only now coming to raceday after winning two trials as far back as August last year. Well drawn and the money's there for it
Main Danger
14 Tassels
F:B(9)W(56.5)
( J-Ashlee Strawbridge )
( T-Ross McCarroll )
On debut after just the one trial so not much to go by, except that it has been backed down from opening $15
Next Best
2 Earlicheer
Dividend : $1.45
Place
F: 46X72B(6)W(58.5)
( J-Michael McNab )
( T-Stephen Marsh )
Scratched in Race 1 in preference for this, this Stephen Marsh runner is showing all the signs a a winning run. Third up for this campaign today
Consider
20 Catwalk Queen
Dividend : $4.60, $1.80
Won
F:B(5)W(56.5)
( J-Matt Cartwright )
( T-Lance O'Sullivan & Andrew Scott )
Has won one of four trials and from a good stable. Will be better for debut run but this isn't a strong field and might get home
Longer Odds
16 Odds And Ends
F: 00X24B(1)W(58.5)
( J-Samantha Collett )
( T-Tony Cole )
Tony Pike has travelled to the CD for this one's last two runs, and that can often stimulate them

Top Pick
8 Notabadbergs
Dividend : $2.40
Place
F: 97X62B(6)W(58.5)
( J-Matthew Cameron )
( T-Shaun & Emma Clotworthy )
Considered a good prospect when a 3yo but eventually only won the one race. Could well show its best this campaign, as evidenced by a photo finish second placing last Sunda
Main Danger
10 Sweet Talkin Gal
F: 50706B(12)W(58.0)
( J-Corentin Berge )
( T-Hollie Wynyard )
Considered good enough that they ran it in several Stakes races last time up. Nice run when resuming at Whanganui and a big chance if overcoming the wide draw
Next Best
9 Sister Cynane
F: 31950B(1)W(58.0)
( J-Masa Hashizume )
( T-Lance O'Sullivan & Andrew Scott )
Owns a bit of ability and, being from this stable, you'd think it will be improved today. Rails draw will certainly help
Consider
3 Timetoplaythegame
F: 348X6B(7)W(60.0)
( J-Michael McNab )
( T-David Greene )
Although it finished off them when resuming, it was in a stronger field than this. Can do better but drawn a bit wide
Longer Odds
4 Canavese
F: X86X0B(4)W(59.5)
( J-Matt Cartwright )
( T-G A & D G Rogerson & Clint Isdale )
Better for its resuming run and we like the booking of Matt Cartwright

Dividend : $2.05
Place
F: 37X83B(9)W(58.5)
( J-Ace Lawson-Carroll )
( T-Shaun & Emma Clotworthy )
Third up this campaign and likely to improve on its record of 3 thirds from its 7 starts. First run at middle distance last time was promising
Main Danger
1 Denver
F: X0L62B(7)W(58.5)
( J-Masa Hashizume )
( T-Danica Guy )
On the quick back up from Sunday when it showed its best form in a while when just missing in a photo finish. Craig Grylls adds to its chance too, today
Next Best
13 Romanin
F: 28X36B(6)W(56.5)
( J-Samantha Collett )
( T-Steven Ramsay & Julia Ritchie )
Just over 1 1/2 lengths behind our Top Pick at Matamata two weeks ago and looks likely to run well here today
Consider
2 Erase
Dividend : $2.00
Place
F: 27356B(5)W(58.5)
( J-Joe Nishizuka )
( T-Stephen Ralph )
Has run a couple of nice races this year and finds another opportunity to get in the money here

Top Pick
Best "Each Way"
1 Open Country
Dividend : $2.05
Place
F: 14XB(6)W(59.0)
( J-Sam McNab )
( T-Tony Pike )
This 3yo with Tony Pike's stable could be pretty smart, given what it showed in its first campaign. Spelled after running in a strong Stakes race in January, it will be a lot stronger now
Main Danger
5 Foxglove
F: 54657B(5)W(57.0)
( J-Hayley Hassman )
( T-Lance O'Sullivan & Andrew Scott )
Hasn't been far away in any of its start recently and we thought that was a particularly good run at Ellerslie two weeks ago, after it came out of gate 13
Next Best
7 What Next
F: 518B(9)W(57.0)
( J-Samantha Collett )
( T-Benjamin King )
Would be rated higher if it hadn't drawn so wide, so much did we like its win two back at Hawera. Struck a strong field last time out
Consider
6 Sexy And I Moet
Dividend : $3.50, $1.55
Won
F: 000X3B(3)W(57.0)
( J-Matt Cartwright )
( T-Stephen Marsh )
Can't fault its run at Rotorua when resuming and sure to be improved. Matt Cartwright rides for Stephen Marsh and that's a strong partnership
Longer Odds
11 Aramaki
F: 510X0B(4)W(56.0)
( J-Corentin Berge )
( T-Shane Crawford )
This trainer has had a great season and many of the winners have been in partnership with Craig Grylls. He rides this one
