3 Enright
F: 04235B(6)W(60.0)
( J-Liam Kauri )
( T-Stuart Manning )
As its 11 seconds suggests, it is one of those gallopers that should have won more than just three races. Running well enough to be in the mix again

Te Akau runner that can't be left out. Although third last time, thought it had its chance so a bit disappointing

F: 546x1B(6)W(57.5)

F: 60247B(15)W(58.5)
( J-Michael McNab )

hen Tony Pike calls up Michael McNab, it pays to take note, as is the case here. Strong market support has seen it backed down from 18's

( J-Matt Cartwright )

A talented 3yo and a great training feat to bring it back from 2400m in the Derby to win so well in a G3 three weeks ago. Rails draw and can go back to back on that performance
Main Danger
3 Atmospheric
F: x1331B(3)W(57.0)
( J-Masa Hashizume )
( T-Cody Cole )
First run at middle distance but the way it finished to win over 1600m last time, it should be perfect. Great turn of foot and one to follow

F: 6101B(2)W(55.0)
( J-George Rooke )

Not surprisingly was at very long odds in The Kiwi two runs ago but back to R65 three weeks ago, put them away with ease. Another up to 2100m for the first time but should be ideal
Consider
1 Bourbon Proof
F: 42208B(15)W(57.0)
( J-Michael McNab )
( T-Stephen Marsh )
Stephen Marsh runner that was eighth here two weeks ago, behind a stablemate, but don't be put off by that - it was only 3 3/4 lengths behind the winner. Wide draw the issue though

F: 32317B(10)W(53.0)
( J-Michael McNab )

Michael McNab deserts it for the ride on Croupier but might regret it as this trainer is very astute and it has the ability to be in the finish
