One of two Kevin Myers runners and comes into this fresh up but on the back of a winning trial. Although not the more fancied, Lily has the reins and that's guides us

The 'Day's Best'
1 Trauma
Dividend : $1.30
Place
F: 05x1B(10)W(60.5)
( J-Lily Sutherland )
( T-Kevin Myers )
Kevin Myers won with this one on Monday and it was so commanding that you'd wonder why it wouldn't back up. Just the three races to date for the 4yo so there'll be upside too
Main Danger
10 Mystic Ocean
F: 03B(8)W(55.0)
( J-Kate Hercock )
( T-Michael & Matthew Pitman )
Good progress from debut to finish its race off well last time. One of two Pitman runners and Kate Hercock gets off the other one to ride
Next Best
4 Jetstream
F: 04034B(7)W(57.0)
( J-Tina Comignaghi )

Pitman's have this one as a contender too and you'd want it in your trifectas

Dividend : $6.30, $2.30
Won
F: 02593B(11)W(58.5)
( J-Floor Moerman )
( T-Krystal-Marie Williams )
Just 3 1/2 lengths behind Trauma on Monday and now meets it 4kg better off. That suggests it is a chance but wide draw an issue
Longer Odds
5 Noivern
F: 0380B(2)W(57.0)
( J-Donovan Cooper )
( T-John Blackadder )
Showed promise in four starts in the north and now on debut in the south
Pitman's seem to have this wrapped up with all three runners a chance. But this one comes in fresh to the circuit after a nice run for second at Timaru
Main Danger

Dividend : $4.60, $2.20
Won
F: 7x004B(3)W(57.0)
( J-Tina Comignaghi )
( T-Michael & Matthew Pitman )
8yo now and four lengths behind Russian Roulette on Monday but we think it can turn that around with its greater preference for a firm track

Dividend :
Place
F: x4819B(8)W(55.0)
( J-Leah Hemi )

A winner at 57/1 two back, and OK run last time, it is seeing support in the market and that's worth taking into account

Top Pick
1 Bernardo
F: 51B(12)W(60.5)
( J-Lily Sutherland )
( T-Kevin Myers )
Another winner for the Myers/Sunderland combination? We think so and if you can get in at the current $2.60, then its worth the risk. Only the three races to date and looks talented
Main Danger

Won
F: 3744xB(4)W(56.5)
( J-Tina Comignaghi )

Many chances so as a last start winner, has to be considered. That was a good effort too given it came out of gate 12
