Top Pick
8 Legacy
F: 1638XB(12)W(57.0)
( J-Lily Sutherland )
( T-Johno Benner )
Showed enough last campaign to suggest it can beat this field. Will be looking for further but 1600m ideal today, fresh up
Main Danger
4 Meloni
Dividend : $1.90, $1.18
Won
F: 68X43B(8)W(59.0)
( J-Joe Doyle )
( T-Robbie Patterson )

F: 31188B(11)W(60.0)
( J-Sarah Macnab )
( T-Tony Furness )
Promised plenty when winning two back in the winter but didn't go on with it. Back to R65 today
Consider

Looked a chance two weeks ago after being on the pace but ultimately finished two lengths behind Meloni
Longer Odds
7 On Shaw
F: 17406B(9)W(57.5)
( J-Kelly Myers )
( T-Niall Quinn )
Whanganui trainer has had a good few months and this one wasn't far away last start

Top Pick
12 Noverre Belle
F:B(17)W(54.0)
( J-Samantha Collett )
( T-Cody Cole )
Formidable trainer/jockey combination and this one on debut after winning one of three trials. Early money suggests it has good ability

Place
F:B(5)W(54.0)
( J-Kelly Myers )
( T-Roydon Bergerson )
On debut from a stable that has a good strike rate with first starters
Next Best

Place
F: 63X3B(8)W(54.0)
( J-Lily Sutherland )
( T-Tony Pike )
Only 2 1/2 lengths behind Ronaldo in a stakes race back in March. Better for resuming run and Lily is a great booking
Consider
5 Ain't It Fun
F: 24XB(2)W(56.5)
( J-Chris Dell )
( T-Janelle Millar )
Close up finishes in only two starts back in the autumn before being spelled. Good trainer and resumes now, five months later. Inside gate

Race 4 - NZB READY TO RUN SALE TRAINERS SERIES
Time: 2:25 PM | Distance: 1200 m | Prize $ 40000
Top Pick
7 Classy Brahma
F: 3X322B(8)W(58.0)
( J-Elen Nicholas )
( T-Trudy & Vaughan Keegan )
Wide open race so best to go with this superbly honest local galloper. Although only the one win, it has placed 12 times (7 seconds!) in its other 15 starts
Main Danger
10 Too Sweet
F: X86X3B(9)W(57.5)
( J-Kelly Myers )
( T-Roydon Bergerson )
In behind Classy Brahma when resuming and will have taken improvement
Next Best
12 Wailea
F: 8X21XB(5)W(57.0)
( J-Leah Hemi )
( T-Steven Ramsay & Julia Ritchie )
Down from the north and resuming, after winning at the nearby Waverley course six months ago. Leah Hemi rides
Consider
1 Intention
F: 30X4XB(10)W(59.5)
( J-Toni Davies )
( T-Mike Breslin )
One to take a closer look at, when you consider it ran in the 1000 Guineas at Riccarton last November. Resuming from a spell today
Longer Odds
13 Pee Bee Girl
F: 2610XB(1)W(56.5)
( J-Joe Doyle )
( T-Bill Thurlow )
One of two that nearby trainer runs and this looks the best chance. Showed a lot of promise last campaign and resumes today with the rails draw

Time: 2:59 PM | Distance: 1400 m | Prize $ 40000
Top Pick
Best "Each Way"
15 Sperlari
Dividend : $2.20
Place
F: 453X4B(9)W(54.5)
( J-Samantha Collett )
( T-Cody Cole )
We wondered why Sam Collett wasn't riding at Matamata but seeing her book of rides, we understand now. This one was only two lengths behind Big Wave last time at that's good form for this
Main Danger
3 Belles Boom
Dividend : $4.80, $2.05
Won
F: X2312B(8)W(58.5)
( J-Tom Wigram )
( T-Robbie Patterson )
4yo that has shown good ability in 8 starts, predominantly in Stakes company. 3kg claim helps
Next Best
12 Myakkabelle
F: 356X7B(14)W(56.0)
( J-Sam McNab )
( T-Ben & Ryan Foote )
Will come in a number of places in the draw with scratchings, and given its good run when resuming, that brings it into the mix
Consider
13 Our Akashinga
F: X2212B(1)W(56.0)
( J-Lisa Allpress )
( T-Kevin & Stephen Gray )
Consistently thereabouts and favoured with the rails draw today
Longer Odds
4 Erbys Darci
F: 3191XB(4)W(58.5)
( J-Chris Dell )
( T-Gavin Sharrock )
A bit underrated but it has won three of its 12 starts, and this field has cut up with the number of scratchings
$100k stakes on offer and Te Akau target these races. Despite a meeting on their home track, they send this one south and it is clearly the highest rated galloper in the field
Main Danger
12 Tajana
F: 138X3B(1)W(56.5)
( J-Sam McNab )
( T-Shaune Ritchie & Colm Murray )
We think we're going to see this talented 4yo evolve this campaign, after it showed up against the best 3yo's last season. That included the Oaks in March, before it was spelled. Rails draw
Next Best
10 Circus Dancer
F: 713X1B(8)W(56.5)
( J-Samantha Collett )
( T-Cody Cole )
Although it was only a R75 that it won when resuming, it bolted in and has a lot of upside
Consider
9 Ploy
F: 180X1B(3)W(57.0)
( J-Leah Hemi )
( T-Cody Cole )
Cody Cole also runs this one, having scratched it in an earlier race today. Nice run to win when resuming from a six month spell last time
Longer Odds
5 Connello
F: 644X0B(2)W(57.0)
( J-Chris Dell )
( T-Lisa Latta )
Needs to improve but never underestimate Lisa Latta in a race like this

Race 7 - WEIR TOURS EGMONT CUP
Time: 4:11 PM | Distance: 2100 m | Prize $ 60000
Top Pick
5 Cheval de Foudre
F: 22326B(12)W(55.0)
( J-Floor Moerman )
( T-Mark Oulaghan )
On the quick back up after a fresh up run at New Plymouth last week. wasn't too far away and that will have sharpened it up nicely for this more suitable trip
Main Danger
3 Manzor Blue
F: 12X46B(6)W(56.5)
( J-Joe Doyle )
( T-Lisa Latta )
The Auckland Cup winner back in March, it should be ready to challenge after two runs back and now racing at a more suitable distance
Next Best
10 Malachy
F: 61112B(10)W(54.0)
( J-Tom Wigram )
( T-Allan Sharrock )
Not far off completing a four timer at Hastings last week, when dropped back to 1650m. Was nearly two lengths ahead of our Top Pick then so rates and will be better over this distance. Tom Ingram won on it two back and is back in the saddle today
Consider
2 Ayteem
F: 42117B(11)W(57.0)
( J-Chris Dell )
( T-Janelle Millar )
Very capable galloper and on its best form will go close. Excuse its last run as needs this distance these days
Longer Odds
15 Coney Island
F: 22234B(2)W(54.0)
( J-Wiremu Pinn )
( T-Lisa Latta )
Once again, we're hesitant to leave a Lisa Latta runner out, and Wiremu Pinn adds to its chances

Time: 4:46 PM | Distance: 2100 m | Prize $ 40000
Top Pick
4 Tai
Dividend : $3.30
Place
F: 03X89B(3)W(58.5)
( J-Joe Doyle )
( T-Erin Hocquard )
Two runs in, this campaign, this big, bold galloper should find conditions ideal today and with the drop back to R65, will be very hard to beat
Main Danger
11 Come To Terms
F: 08723B(1)W(54.0)
( J-Sarah Macnab )
( T-Paul Pascoe )
Certainly doesn't win out of turn, with one win from 20 starts, but is honest and won't get a better chance than this
Next Best
9 Breadwinner
Dividend : $3.50, $1.60
Won
F: 0X845B(2)W(55.5)
( J-Tom Wigram )
( T-Allan Sharrock )
Always thereabouts, without threatening, not much will need to change for it to be there at the business end. Two things in that respect today are the booking of this good 3kg claimer and the step up to middle distance for the first time
Consider
6 Leprekhan
F: L6103B(6)W(57.0)
( J-Toni Davies )
( T-Niall Quinn )
Has been mixing its races, from hurdles to 3200m on the flat, but showed that it has trained on with a good run into third last time
Longer Odds
1 Wry Smile
F: 20214B(8)W(59.0)
( J-Floor Moerman )
( T-Samantha Logan )
Has been racing in amateur riders races up north and this R65 is no stronger
