12 Djibouti
F: 203B(8)W(56.0)
( J-Craig Grylls )
( T-Kurtis Pertab )
Comes south after running well behind a promising type last start, when on a Heavy8, and Craig Grylls has been handed the reins

Place
F: 0160XB(4)W(59.0)

Place
F: 01581B(3)W(56.0)

Main Danger
2 The Underbelly
F: 0X309B(1)W(60.0)
( J-Craig Grylls )
( T-Kurtis Pertab )
Trainer of our Top Pick also runs this 7 time winner and if it was anywhere near its best form, would probably be winning. But just not at its best in recent runs
Next Best
6 Highly Lethal
F: 88174B(6)W(54.0)
( J-Kate Hercock )
( T-Brendon McDermott )
Small field again and that puts it in with a place chance
Consider

F: 828X5B(5)W(57.5)
( J-Liam Kauri )
( T-Harvey Wilson )
Back up to a more suitable distance, having run over 1600m in a highweight last time. That will have sharpened it up
Longer Odds

Dividend :
Place
F: 2790XB(4)W(54.0)
( J-Floor Moerman )
( T-Kevin Myers )
Galloper with ability resuming out of this good stable. Will be for enough to compete for a place

( J-Jonathan Riddell )

Main Danger
8 Dark And Dusty
F: 76544B(5)W(57.0)
( J-Samantha Collett )
( T-Stephen Nickalls )
Consistently thereabouts in all runs this year and must win one soon. This trainer has had an amazing year

Dividend : $1.70
Place
F: 97042B(6)W(58.0)
( J-Bruno Queiroz )
( T-Lisa Latta )

Consider
3 Early One's
Dividend : $2.70
Place
F: 33281B(3)W(58.5)
( J-Elen Nicholas )
( T-Howie Mathews )
That win in a highweight two weeks ago would have been a confidence booster and should run well again
Longer Odds
10 Cleo's Magic
F: 00275B(7)W(56.0)
( J-Lily Sutherland )
( T-Joshua Lavelle & Sacha Rennie )
Wasn't far away when resuming over 1600m here two weeks ago and will be more suited to today's distance

( J-Chris Dell (+1kg) )

Main Danger

F: 31232B(5)W(53.0)
( J-Craig Grylls )
( T-Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )
Te Akau are confident of a strong showing and with its consistent run of placings and close up finishes, you can understand why. Craig Grylls is now in the saddle
Next Best
4 Omega Boy
F: 61108B(2)W(57.0)
( J-Toni Davies )
( T-Peter and Trent Didham )
Astute local trainer and is on the quick back up after finishing close up in a stronger race than this at Ellerslie last Saturday

Dividend : $3.60, $1.90
Won
F: 62031B(1)W(53.0)
( J-George Rooke )

6 The Scunner
F: 21005B(6)W(56.5)
( J-Joe Doyle )
( T-Ashley Meadows )

Place
F: 93145B(5)W(54.5)
( J-Samantha Collett )

Northerner with good ability, having its first run in the Heavy. But has been running well and should be too good for these if handling those track conditions

Won
F: 14319B(4)W(55.5)
( J-Amber Riddell )

Place
F: 28X17B(6)W(57.0)
( J-Floor Moerman )
( T-Sue Thompson-Brown & Mick Brown )
Good winner two back at Whanganui on a Heavy track so today should suit. Excuse last run when winner led them from a long way out and was never going to be caught
Consider
2 Complex
F: 24073B(2)W(57.5)
( J-Madan Singh )
( T-Ilone Kelly )
Albeit it was in only a small field at Whanganui last week, it ran home well for third. Comes out again and should be improved

F: 89X99B(1)W(56.0)
( J-Bruno Queiroz )
( T-Suzy Gordon )
Was at big odds in its last race last month. Has won a trial since to sharpen it up
