  F: 5x178   B(6)  W(55.0)

   ( J- Matt Cartwright )

   ( J- Rory Hutchings )

   ( T- Tony Pike )

  Tony Pike runner that's on the quick back up after being just a length of talented Koheroa at Ellerslie six days ago. That's a good sign and solid form

  F: x931x   B(3)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Sam Weatherley )

  Place

  F: 46568   B(1)  W(60.0)

  7 Testing  

  F: 15   B(11)  W(57.0)

  5 Graeme John  

  F: x6520   B(4)  W(58.0)

  7 Charmer  

  F: 16054   B(3)  W(58.0)

   ( J- Craig Grylls )

   ( T- Ben & Ryan Foote )

  Seen finishing its race off to good effect at Tauranga last week and now on the quick back up. Craig Grylls now takes the reins and has already been backed down from an opening 15's

  Main Danger

  

  2 Tiny Diamond  

  F: 2x423   B(12)  W(60.0)

   ( J- Chris Dell )

   ( T- Janelle Millar )

  Who would deny that this 4yo rates a big chance, not only because its running so well (second at Ellerslie on New Year's Day) but also that the stable is so improved in the last couple of months

  15 Tianzi  

  F: 0x437   B(8)  W(55.5)

  Place

  F: 437x1   B(6)  W(58.0)

  Dominant win at Whanganui three weeks ago and the step up to 1600m shouldn't be an issue. Northern trainer has had good success with his forays into the central districts and is about to open a stable in Palmerston North

   ( J- Triston Moodley )

  Has the superior current form here after performing well in Group and Open races recently. Drawn well and only question mark is that it hasn't won on the course in seven starts

  5 Sugah Sweet  

  F: 9x8x1   B(7)  W(55.0)

   ( J- Sam Weatherley )

  Has never really fulfilled potential but that might be about to change if its win when resuming is anything to go by. The second that day is a decent type and the third won a good race last week

   ( J- Lily Sutherland )

   ( T- Guy Lowry & Leah Zydenbos )

  Just got home to win a R75 three weeks ago so this its toughest test to date. But there has been strong support in the early market to indicate further improvement. Wide draw

  Consider

  

  10 Fame Star  

  F: 306x5   B(4)  W(54.0)

  F: 09x19   B(5)  W(59.5)

  F: 11562   B(9)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Tina Comignaghi )

  F: 5142   B(2)  W(56.5)

  F: 1x002   B(10)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Sam Weatherley )

   ( T- Sam Mynott )

  Given the trainer has two good chances in this, we're guided by the tote and this one has been backed down from an opening 14/1. Went close here prior to Christmas when third up and takes improvement from that

  Main Danger

  

  3 Mr Jay Eight  

  F: 46074   B(6)  W(57.5)

  F: 20x50   B(4)  W(55.0)

   ( J- George Rooke )

   ( T- Andrew Forsman )

  There's not much in it in terms of the odds on offered for the two Andrew Forsman's runners but we favour this one, with the in-form English jockey up. Lightly raced, it has been running in stronger company and now steps up to a more suitable 2100m

  F: 33232   B(1)  W(57.0)

  Classy Australian 7yo over for the Cup and Luke Currie comes to ride. Fine run for second at Flemington on New Year's Day will have it tuned up nicely, its previous run having been in the Melbourne Cup
