  F: 4x2x1   B(6)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Michael McNab )

   ( T- Allan Sharrock )

  Spelled after three promising efforts in the autumn last year and resumed after six months to put in a strong performance to get up close to home five weeks ago. Trainer said at the time he thought it was a good prospect

  4 Inca Belle  

  F: x2236   B(3)  W(57.5)

   ( J- Craig Grylls )

   ( T- Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )

  Te Akau brings down from the north and with Craig Grylls on the reins, you'd expect it to be in the finish

  Won

  F: 317   B(2)  W(56.0)

   ( J- Chris Dell )

   ( T- Janelle Millar )

  This locally trained runner could makes things interesting, dropping back from a Stakes race after winning its maiden prior

  F: 13x73   B(1)  W(59.0)

  Last raced at Ellerslie so this will be easier but is resuming after two months and might need the run

  F: 39x46   B(5)  W(58.5)

  Dividend : $1.50

  Place

  F: 89174   B(13)  W(57.5)

   ( J- Craig Grylls )

   ( T- Mike Breslin )

  Had some good types at this level ahead of it when finishing less than 1 1/2 lengths off the winner at Trentham last start. Noted Craig Grylls is on the reins and this is easier

  Main Danger

  

  2 Customized  

  F: 46586   B(11)  W(59.0)

   ( J- Jonathan Riddell )

   ( T- Steven Cole )

  This is one you should take a look at, now racing in a R65. Ran in three Group races at the end of last year, including being just 4 1/2 lengths behind Savaglee in a G1

  1 Tiny Diamond  

  F: x4230   B(7)  W(59.5)

   ( J- Chris Dell )

  Consider

  

  3 Investigate  

  F: 090x9   B(2)  W(59.0)

   ( J- Michael McNab )

  F: 60312   B(5)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Ryan Elliot )

   ( T- Tony Pike )

  $3.80 (Odds Surge) is fair value for this Tony Pike runner. Won well two back, over distance with Ryan Elliot up, and he is reunited today

  1 Grahams Pride  

  F: 29x51   B(6)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Jonathan Riddell )

   ( T- Shaun Fannin & Hazel Schofer )

  This stable is so good at bringing the improvement to their runners and we've seen that in this one, the way it finished over them last start. The extra 200m should well be to its liking

  8 Belle Tribute  

  F: 8321   B(10)  W(56.0)

  1 Truce  

  F: 3x1   B(7)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Lily Sutherland )

   ( T- Allan Sharrock )

  Ryan Elliot rides for tony Pike here and, although resuming, has won fresh up before. Looks to have more ability than the rest of them so goes in for third

  F: 315   B(2)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Michael McNab )

   ( T- Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )

  There's some good money on offer here today and the 3yo's compete for $80k here. Te Akau have chosen this exciting filly to run and it was so impressive two back, that it must rate well here
