( J-Masa Hashizume )

Stepped up to 2200m for the first time at Te Aroha 10 days ago and that was a very promising run. Only just over two lengths behind Interplanetary and that one's being talked about as a Derby prospect

3 Guipago
F:B(5)W(57.5)

Locally trained by, I think, a much improved trainer, and having watched it win its trial in such commanding fashion, I don't want to be on anything else.

14 Surprise Inside
F:B(11)W(55.5)
( J-Masa Hashizume )
( T-Roger James & Robert Wellwood )
One of two running here for this training partnership and in fact at longer odds. However, Masa is riding so well and with so much confidence, we're siding with it

( J-George Rooke )
( T-N W Tiley )
Given that it was only 1 1/2 lengths behind Alladin Sane last start, and we think that's a capable galloper, this one has to be our selection today. The step up to 2100m will be just perfect
