Place
F: 64565B(8)W(56.5)
( J-Lynsey Satherley )
( T-Darrell Hollinshead )
Its run last time week was better than its finishing position. On the quick back up, a good sign

Won
F: 8X354B(1)W(56.5)
( J-Matthew Cameron )
( T-Ken & Bev Kelso )
Was less than two lengths from the winner last time. Concern is that that was a month ago. Rails draw
Consider
3 Kentucky Shine
F: 0B(5)W(57.0)
( J-George Rooke )
( T-Shaune Ritchie & Colm Murray )
A trial winner on the synthetic, it finished last on debut. Shorter in the betting than we would have expected

4 Swaggaman
F: 00B(6)W(57.0)
( J-Joe Doyle )
( T-Shaun & Emma Clotworthy )
Two races to date and a trial winner prior. Its last run was in quite a strong maiden

Won
F:B(9)W(57.0)
( J-Opie Bosson )
( T-Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )
Another example of Te Akau building their younger horses up slowly and then taking them to race day when they're ready to compete. This one has been well trialled and won its last a month ago
Main Danger
1 Malleable
Dividend : $1.40
Place
F: X4853B(7)W(58.5)
( J-Warren Kennedy )
( T-Ralph Manning )
There's a couple of others we like the look of but they have drawn so wide, it opens up a chance for this one, which comes out of a winning stable and has current form
Next Best
7 Vento D'Argento
F: 5B(13)W(57.0)
( J-Joe Doyle )
( T-Shaune Ritchie & Colm Murray )
Nice debut after a winning trial and was well supported that day. Would be a real chance had it drawn better
Consider
5 Prince Valiant
F: 8B(8)W(58.5)
( J-Sam Weatherley )
( T-Jon Miller )
Very good run on debut, having come out of a wide gate. Resumes a month later and will have developed
Longer Odds
Best "Roughie"
4 The Frenchman
F: 0B(2)W(58.5)
( J-Rory Hutchings )
( T-Pam Gerard )
Ignore its performance on debut as it will be much improved today, coming out of the Pam Gerard stable and Rory is a great booking

Place
F: 222B(7)W(57.0)
( J-Matthew Cameron )
( T-Murray Thompson )
3 length runner to Well Written on debut in September and that looks good now. Second in its two runs since and should be breaking through for its first win today
Main Danger
12 Osipova
F:B(1)W(55.0)
( J-Warren Kennedy )
( T-Lance O'Sullivan & Andrew Scott )
From top stable and will be well prepared for debut. The rails draw adds to its chances
Next Best
7 Sicarius
F:B(9)W(57.0)
( J-Sam Weatherley )
( T-Sam Mynott )
This trainer is talented and we're seeing that in her runners performances. This 3yo won a trial back in April but has been held back from race day to let it develop. Does that today after a trial to prepare
Consider
9 Khaleesi
Dividend : $10.00, $3.20
Won
F:B(5)W(56.5)
( J-George Rooke )
( T-Stephen Marsh )
Stephen Marsh trained runner having its first run, and as a 4yo. With this jockey on the reins, has to be a strong consideration to be in the money

Place
F:B(3)W(55.0)

Place
F: 62532B(1)W(58.0)
( J-Hayley Hassman )
( T-Gavin Opie )
Improving and Hayley adds to its chances, as does the rails draw. It was 1/2 length behind We Found Love two back but beat it by a length two weeks ago
Main Danger
5 We Found Love
F: 50X24B(9)W(58.0)
( J-George Rooke )
( T-Lauren Brennan )
Has been running well and clearly a danger and very likely to be in the top three
Next Best
1 Gold Card
F: 7X696B(2)W(60.0)
( J-Rory Hutchings )
( T-Carl Henderson )
Three runs in this campaign and Rory takes the reins. Will that be enough to pick up the two lengths it was behind our Top pick last time?
Consider
7 Linkin Park
F: 89226B(7)W(55.5)
( J-Matthew Cameron )
( T-Sam Mynott )
Sure to take them along at a merry clip, and in that respect the drop back in distance works
Longer Odds
2 Opaea Joe
F: 81086B(8)W(60.0)
( J-Sam McNab )
( T-Gavin Opie )
Same trainer as our Top Pick. A 7yo now but it has been a prolific winner

Next Best
4 Bellish Boy
F:B(7)W(57.0)
( J-Craig Grylls )

Consider
8 Madame Kiwi
F: 9306XB(6)W(56.5)

Not bad in its first campaign and should go well fresh up. Joe Doyle rides and always gives them every chance

Place
F: 1X491B(1)W(56.5)

Debbie Sweeney has this 5yo going the right way, racing it over middle distance in both its run this campaign. Joe Doyle got it home last time and sticks today, with rails draw to advantage

9 Levakia
F: 11X99B(8)W(56.0)

Place
F: 04343B(5)W(57.0)

F: 25771B(6)W(61.0)
( J-Sam McNab )
( T-Stuart Manning )
Has to be our odds player, at a last start winner and at a generous EW $17. Yes this is harder but note that as well as winning 4, it has run second 12 times!

Just beaten in a photo finish last time when Craig Grylls was on the reins, so interesting to note in-form trainer has re-united this 4kg claimer with it today. Might well produce the desired result

5 Lucan
F: 16X64B(1)W(58.5)
( J-Lynsey Satherley )

Debbie Sweeney has a few good chances today and this one is a 'live' chance. Course winner and rails draw is perfect

F: X0580B(7)W(58.5)

6 Toruk Makto
F: 0X719B(5)W(58.5)
( J-Sam McNab )
( T-Bruce Wallace & Grant Cooksley )
Going to excuse its last run as it won well two back. Had a good stable reputation last season
