  Place

  F:   B(6)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Hayley Hassman )

   ( T- Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )

  Te Akau regularly sends their 2yo's down to this meeting, when on debut. They have a good strike rate and this can add to that

  Won

  F:   B(3)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Kelly Myers )

   ( T- Bill Thurlow and Sam O’Malley )

  Trained at Waverley, north of here, and has seen a lot of early support. No doubt that's on the basis of the ability it showed when winning its only trial by 5 lengths

  F: 43   B(5)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Kavish Chowdhoory )

  F: 220X   B(5)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Kelly Myers )

   ( T- Andrew Forsman )

  Three runs in first campaign with two good seconds over this distance. Resumes and that form will be good enough to win this

  Main Danger

  

  9 Shochita  

  F: 2   B(6)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Floor Moerman )

   ( T- Kevin Myers )

  F: 54324   B(1)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Kavish Chowdhoory )

   ( T- Matt Dixon )

  No depth in this field at all and this one looks the best of the rest. Rails draw

  5 Popinjay  

  F: 258X3   B(8)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Toni Davies )

   ( T- Mike Breslin )

  10 Abeecee  

  F: 482X8   B(3)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Leah Hemi )

  F: 30X22   B(9)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Toni Davies )

   ( T- Peter and Trent Didham )

  Has been runner up in both runs this campaign, and the step up to 1600m has been ideal

  Main Danger

  

  3 Fantabulous  

  F: 532   B(3)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Floor Moerman )

   ( T- Kevin Myers )

  Local trainer has made good progress with this runner, as he always does, and not expected to be far away

  2 Alliance  

  F: 4X2X   B(8)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Kavish Chowdhoory )

   ( T- Bill Thurlow and Sam O’Malley )

  4yo with just the two runs but they have been respectable. Resumes after 6 months so place might be best

  F: 2925   B(13)  W(56.5)

  2 Prince Of Diamonds  

  F: 231   B(5)  W(59.0)

   ( J- Chris Dell )

   ( T- Janelle Millar )

  Interesting that this good New Plymouth trainer bypassed a meeting on her home track yesterday for this race. Won nicely at only its third start three weeks ago and looks the type to rise through the grades

  Main Danger

  

  3 Capaci  

  Dividend : $3.30, $1.55

  Won

  F: X8373   B(4)  W(57.5)

   ( J- Jack Taplin )

   ( T- Robbie Patterson )

  Won on debut last campaign before running well in a Stakes race. Last start this time up was also in a Stakes race so clearly well thought of

  Next Best

  

  7 Trafalgar  

  F: 100   B(13)  W(57.5)

   ( J- Leah Hemi )

   ( T- Tony Cole )

  Won on debut in March and has been up against good fields up north since. Just needs to overcome wide draw

  Consider

  

  5 Outer Focus  

  F: 26072   B(6)  W(57.5)

   ( J- Floor Moerman )

   ( T- Kevin Myers )

  Another Kevin Myers runner and came off a winning trial to be beaten just a length whenn resuming. Fresh up again but rates a chance

  Longer Odds

  

  4 Four Square Pete  

  F: X040X   B(1)  W(57.5)

   ( J- Kelly Myers )

   ( T- Kevin Myers )

  First run since December but this local trainer will have it ready, having trialled it three times. Expect an improved galloper this time up. Rails draw today

• Top Pick

  

  1 Skattebo  

  F: 411   B(5)  W(58.0)

   ( J- Chris Dell )

   ( T- Janelle Millar )

  This trainer/jockey partnership is proving to be a formidable one in the CD and, although not winning by much, this 3yo is answering everything asked of it. Might well win another Stakes race here

  Main Danger

  

  11 Flyhalf  

  F: 2X531   B(6)  W(55.0)

   ( J- Leah Hemi )

   ( T- Tony Cole )

  Has been well thought of from its first start but took 6 starts to break through last time. That was impressive though

  Next Best

  

  5 Roc All Night  

  Dividend : $1.80

  Place

  F: 212   B(1)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Kelly Myers )

   ( T- Robbie Patterson )

  This trainer is a pretty good judge and doesn't normally advance his runners to Stakes company so early in their career. The fact he did with this one suggests it will be up to it. Rails draw to advantage

  Consider

  

  2 Midnight Train  

  F: 13222   B(2)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Floor Moerman )

   ( T- Ralph Manning )

  Honest and within 1/2 length of the winner in 4 of last 5 starts. Gets every chance to get a deserved win here today from gate 2

  Longer Odds

  

  6 Bella's Boy  

  F: 784X2   B(3)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Liam Kauri )

   ( T- Ralph Manning )

  When this in-form trainer brings one south, you know it's a winning chance. Not a bad 'second runner' to have in the field

  Won

  F: 3X019   B(2)  W(59.0)

   ( J- Kelly Myers )

   ( T- Andrew Forsman )

  A winner of over $275k, it certainly has the ability to wining this and is a past course winner. Kelly Myers won on it two back and will like her chances, back in Open company again

  Main Danger

  Dividend : $1.80

  Place

  F: 22972   B(5)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Jack Taplin )

   ( T- Robbie Patterson )

  This 7yo also represents a bit of class, having won over $330k. Having said that, it's not really fulfilled its early promise but the signs were good last time, when it just missed

  1 Belardo Boy  

  F: 58X20   B(4)  W(62.0)

   ( J- Hayley Hassman )

   ( T- Lisa Latta )

  And this 7yo has won 11 races and $468K. How could you leave it out of your thinking here, with Te Akau's talented apprentice bringing the 2kg claim too

  Dividend : $4.00

  Place

  F: 6298X   B(6)  W(58.5)

  5 Urenui  

  F: 2329X   B(7)  W(54.5)

   ( J- Kavish Chowdhoory )

  Dividend : $2.35

  Place

  F: 53171   B(3)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Leah Hemi )

   ( T- Tony Cole )

  A race of many chances so it seems prudent to go with something with good current form. Progressive, it has only had the 5 races and has two of its last three. Inside gate and local jockey remains in the saddle

  Main Danger

  

  2 Cypress  

  F: 1153X   B(8)  W(59.0)

   ( J- Floor Moerman )

   ( T- Kevin Myers )

  A winner of three of its 8 races, local trainer looks to have it spot on to resume after 9 months away from race day, having won two trials to prepare

  Next Best

  

  5 Im Bartholomew  

  F: X11X2   B(13)  W(57.5)

   ( J- Mereana Hudson )

   ( T- Tony Dravitzki )

  Hard to think this import won't be there at the business end. Two wins and a second from 3 runs in NZ and we note it's been backed down from an opening $12

  Consider

  

  8 Beauesk  

  Dividend : $7.00, $2.60

  Won

  F: 12275   B(5)  W(56.0)

  Does look to be Robbie Paterson's best chance in the race and was only 3/4 length behind I'm Bartholomew three weeks ago

  3 Bella Timing  

  F: 6110X   B(6)  W(57.5)

   ( J- Chris Dell )

   ( T- Mark Oulaghan )

  Has been doing everything but win this campaign and we note Chris Dell sticks, despite normally riding for Janelle Millar, who has one in the race. Up to preferred distance today

  Main Danger

  

  1 Khafre  

  F: 34772   B(2)  W(61.0)

   ( J- Floor Moerman )

   ( T- Ralph Manning )

  Trainer has two in the race and this one is the value at these odds, as well as having beaten its stablemate by 3/4 length in their last start. Has won 4 times on this track

  2 Nigella Lane  

  F: 11753   B(1)  W(60.5)

  F: 10492   B(7)  W(54.0)

  F: 4X312   B(10)  W(60.0)

   ( J- Leah Hemi )

   ( T- Tony Cole )

  This 5yo has been given time and it's now producing the benefits. Stepped up to 2100m last time at Ellerslie, after winning its maiden prior, it was impressive in running second

  Main Danger

  

  4 Unusual Cortez  

  F: 18   B(7)  W(59.0)
