Well bred colt who debuted with a strong finish at Auckland. He looks a solid chance in the first
Main Danger
1 Altari
F: 1B(3)W(57.0)
( J-Opie Bosson )
( T-Walker/Bergerson )
Another well bred colt who created a big impression when winning on debut. Rates as the main danger

Won
F: 2B(7)W(56.0)
( J-Sam Weatherley )
( T-Gavin Sharrock )
Stratford trained runner who was well supported on debut and ran a very good second. Be interesting how he matches with the well bred colts
Consider
4 Arundel Castle
F: 3B(4)W(56.0)
( J-Kyle Wilson-Taylor )
( T-Tony Pike )
A nice debut third at Auckland where I think he got a little lost in the run home. Blinkers on will help that
Longer Odds
5 Chicago Jack
F: 64B(6)W(56.0)
( J-Warren Kennedy )
( T-Steven Cole )
Has nice ability and one to definitely watch. Comes out of that same race at Auckland and went a tidy race in fourth. Longer odds hope

Won
F: 04521B(1)W(57.5)
( J-Opie Bosson )
( T-Stephen Marsh )

Main Danger
5 Lord Donovan
F: 11X24B(5)W(58.0)
( J-Kate Hercock )

Robbie holds a strong hand in this race and no more than this runner. Has been impressive winning though the grades his last four and looks big to complete the picket fence

10 Petrucci
F: 45124B(4)W(53.0)

F: 42430B(2)W(53.0)

7 Bradman
F: X4912B(1)W(53.0)
( J-Masa Hashizume )

Winner two back and could argue should of won last start. I think he is racing better than his price suggests. One for longer odds

Top Pick
13 Irish Legacy
F: 13B(11)W(55.0)
( J-Ryan Elliot )
( T-James/Wellwood )
Looked extra special when winning at Taupo on debut. Would have gone close to winning at Ellerslie two weeks ago had it got a clear run and expected to have too much class today
Main Danger
4 Witz End
Dividend : $2.10
Place
F: 112B(14)W(57.0)
( J-Sam Weatherley )
( T-Tony Pike )
Classy gelding and was beaten by a very promising type at Taupo just over a week ago. Couldn't get a run 200m out then and might have gone close otherwise
Next Best
1 Tokyo Tycoon
F: 53057B(1)W(57.0)
( J-Opie Bosson )
( T-Walker/Bergerson )
They say 'class is permanent' and we expect this one to be winning soon. Thought it was edging in that direction two back but then found 2100m too far. Back to this distance, could be the one
Consider
10 Moet Down
F: X3172B(2)W(55.0)
( J-Michael McNab )
( T-Stephen Marsh )
Stephen Marsh stable is flying and this one looks at the top of its form. Likes to run handy and benefits from inside draw

Dividend : $2.70
Place
F: 41781B(3)W(56.5)
( J-Masa Hashizume )
( T-Andrew Forsman )
Unlucky two back behind Milly Bloom and won at generous odds two weeks ago at Ellerslie. From a stable whose gallopers tend to keep their form, these odds might prove generous too. Should go the 2400m and good inside gate
Main Danger

F: 22312B(6)W(56.5)

7 Livid Sky
F: 34336B(4)W(56.5)
( J-Sam Weatherley )

Very consistent and think the 2400m will be just perfect, given it was finishing the race off to good effect at Ellerslie. In form rider, Sam Weatherley is up again

( J-Warren Kennedy )
( T-Ashley Meadows )
Gutsy effort when led and fought on over 2100m here last week. the one that beat it is a decent type and it's now on the quick back up, a good sign
Consider
2 Cheval de Foudre
F: 94422B(14)W(59.5)
( J-Matthew Cameron )
( T-Jeff Lynds )
Matt Cameron takes over and, but for the wide draw. we'd have rated higher. Recent form over 1600m has been good and it might be better over the middle distances
