  Time: 12:19 PM | Distance: 1340 m | Prize $ 25000
• Top Pick

  

  2 Manorbier  

  F: 0X290   B(2)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Liam Kauri )

   ( T- Peter & Shaun McKay )

  a number of these could win this. But what is clear is that this stable have a terrific strike rate, on the back of the fact that their runners are 'ready to win' when going to race day

  Main Danger

  

  6 Cowboy  

  F: 0   B(3)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Toni Davies )

   ( T- Josh King & Maija Vance )

  Never a winning chance after getting back early on debut. But down from the north and showed ability at trials prior

  5 Tommy Star  

  Dividend : $7.10, $2.70

  Won

  F: 65   B(7)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Mereana Hudson )

   ( T- Dan O'Leary )

  Not far away in two runs to date and, now third up, will be fit enough to test them. Top horseman trains and won't get a better chance to be winning

  Consider

  

  1 Riomosa  

  F: 62642   B(10)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Madan Singh )

   ( T- Geoffrey Haigh )

  Looks a chance but would like to see it drawn better. Jockey is underrated

  Longer Odds

  

  12 Casta Shadow  

  F: 8X9X6   B(4)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Elle Sole )

   ( T- Mark Oulaghan )

  Yes it was an $85 shot when resuming but defied the odds to be less than 5 lengths away. Considering it came out of gate 12, it was a good run and takes improvement

  Won

  F: 13   B(2)  W(55.0)

   ( J- Leah Hemi )

   ( T- Steven Ramsay & Julia Ritchie )

  Beaten just a length in both starts to date, including in a Stakes race at Tauranga last time. On form, it should be winning, with in-form local jockey now on the reins

  Main Danger

  

  1 Faultless  

  F: 20302   B(3)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Liam Kauri )

   ( T- Peter & Shaun McKay )

  Although it didn't show up in the Whanganui Guineas here two starts ago, its races around that have been excellent, and close up behind two classy gallopers

  Dividend : $2.60

  Place

  F: 460X1   B(4)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Bruno Queiroz )

   ( T- Mark Forbes )

  First run for two months but was a winner on that occasion. Looks better than the others in the field

  Consider

  Dividend : 

  Place

  F: 335X1   B(5)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Amber Riddell )

   ( T- Lisa Latta )

  A winner two weeks ago in a much weaker field so unlikely to trouble them, but is better than the outsider in the field

  Longer Odds

  

  6 Pauatui  

  F: 9X54   B(1)  W(54.0)

   ( J- Toni Davies )

   ( T- Allen Baker )

  1 Kasukedo  

  F: 54854   B(6)  W(59.5)

   ( J- Liam Kauri )

   ( T- Mark Forbes )

  Although 4th last start, was in fact only 3/4 length away in what was a good run. Talented apprentice now rides and brings the 2kg claim

  Main Danger

  

  2 East End Lad  

  F: 61   B(3)  W(59.0)

   ( J- Jonathan Riddell )

   ( T- Mike Breslin )

  Has made marked improvement since its debut run in September, winning a trial since and then a clear cut winner 3 weeks ago

  Won

  F: 13X77   B(8)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Toni Davies )

   ( T- Peter and Trent Didham )

  Has been showing its potential in 6 runs to date and will be better for recent run. Would be rated higher but for wide draw

  Consider

  

  4 Bad Education  

  F: 34200   B(9)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Amber Riddell )

   ( T- Josh King & Maija Vance )

  Has been a bit off them in the last couple but is down from the north and will find the opposition a bit easier

  F: 62589   B(5)  W(57.5)

  Place

  F: 7331X   B(10)  W(59.5)

   ( J- Sima Mxothwa )

   ( T- Allan Sharrock )

  This mare has won 4 from 9 starts and that's due to not only its ability, but they way its been managed. Now a 5yo it resumes after a 8 month spell

  Main Danger

  Dividend : $2.10

  Place

  F: 45X13   B(5)  W(55.0)

   ( J- Mereana Hudson )

   ( T- Bryce Newman )

  Gutsy performance in a R75 last time and this jockey could well suit its racing style

  7 Magawa  

  F: 35801   B(3)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Chris Dell )

   ( T- Matt Dixon )

  Dropped back to R65 and got the nod in to win at long odds last month. Jockey is flying right now and could produced the desired result at good odds again

  F: 63916   B(4)  W(62.0)

   ( J- Sienna Brown )

   ( T- Peter & Shaun McKay )

  Interesting to see this stable bring runners to this track. Not a particularly strong field and this well performed 6yo will be hard to beat

  Main Danger

   ( J- Liam Kauri )

   ( T- Guy Lowry & Leah Zydenbos )

  Fourth but less than 1 1/2 lengths behind the winner when favourite's 3 weeks ago. Will be at peak and a deserved favourite's chance

  F: 37X42   B(8)  W(54.0)

  7 Duneagle  

  F: 19X04   B(5)  W(54.0)

   ( J- Mereana Hudson )

   ( J- Elle Sole )
