F:B(1)W(56.0)
( J-Craig Grylls )
( T-Andrew Forsman )
Nothing really grabs us in this so we're taking a chance with this one, on debut out of the Forsman stable. Sure to have been well prepared, it's favoured with the rails draw and has seen early support
Main Danger

Drops back from a R60 and will appreciate the extra 200m today.

Place
F: 5B(11)W(56.0)
( J-Michael McNab )

Place
F: x5x13B(4)W(58.5)
( J-Michael McNab )
( T-Stephen Marsh )
$40k stake and just the five runners. Does look to be in the hands of this one, given it was less than 2 1/2 lengths behind Savaglee in a G2 last start

Main Danger
1 Poetic Justice
F: 72222B(10)W(58.5)
( J-Rory Hutchings )
( T-Tony Pike )
Tony Pike probably has the best maiden around in his stable; certainly the most frustrating. Seven seconds from just 11 starts, it has to be winning soon but gate 13 tests that again today
Next Best
2 Kaimai Warrior
F: 40x52B(4)W(58.5)
( J-Jasmine Fawcett )
( T-Glen Old )
A good run for second when stepped up to middle distance for the first time last start and might go on with it

7 Harvest Day
F: 40B(10)W(58.0)
( J-Wiremu Pinn )

Glenn Old also runs this 3yo and noted that Wiremu Pinn has taken the reins. Its two runs at 1600m suggest it will be suited to the 2100m

Highly promising performance at Te Rapa three weeks ago and now has the rails draw to advantage. Early support in the markets
Main Danger
10 Ivy's Dancer
F: 5B(5)W(55.5)
( J-Harry Grace )
( T-Lance O'Sullivan & Andrew Scott )
Good EW odds for a runner from this stable, particularly after it was so well backed on debut and ran well. Could well shorten up on race day

8 Viva Glam
F: 3x7x3B(4)W(55.5)
( J-Wiremu Pinn )
( T-Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )
At surprising long odds for a Te Akau runner when resuming here nearly two weeks ago. Will be improved for the run and Wiremu rides again
Consider
11 Line Dancer
F:B(8)W(55.5)

4 Little Bit Of Love
F: 3x605B(6)W(57.0)
( J-Warren Kennedy )
( T-Lance O'Sullivan & Andrew Scott )
Considering how well the stable is going, as well as the close up finishes in a G2 and a G3 in its last two starts, it has to be the choice now dropping back to an Open
Main Danger
5 Puketiro
F: 50x71B(3)W(56.0)
( J-Craig Grylls )
( T-Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )
The ability has always been there this one, as its win record of six from just 13 starts signifies. Looked like it was reaching peak form when winning last time and looks a serious challenger

Place
F: x17x3B(1)W(54.5)

8 Glamour Tycoon

Won
F: 68x33B(7)W(54.0)
( J-Michael McNab )
( T-Stephen Marsh )
Placed in two R75's in only starts this campaign so this clearly tougher. But did run in Group races last time in and trainer places his horses well, so must think it can win
Longer Odds
1 Fall For Cindy
F: 4x00xB(5)W(60.0)
( J-Triston Moodley )
( T-Pam Gerard )
Import from Australia and now with a trainer that is having a very successful season. Five time winner over in Australia and raced in Group races so should be well up to the opposition here

5 Koheroa
F: 05x21B(5)W(57.0)

What a dominant performance this one put up when powering home last start. Marked improvement since Barbara Kennedy took over the training and it can continue to rise through the grades
