Main Danger
6 Tassels
F: 5B(3)W(56.5)
( J-Ashlee Strawbridge )
( T-Ross McCarroll )

4 Girlzgirlzgirlz
Dividend : $4.00, $1.70
Won
F: 4B(11)W(56.5)
( J-Tom Wigram )
( T-Donna Logan )
Ran into fourth a month ago when on debut, having won two of its trials. Those trial wins were on Heavy tracks so should handle this OK. Wide gate a concern
Consider
1 Brass Monkey
F:B(7)W(58.5)
( J-Michael McNab )
( T-Taui Johnson )
On debut after winning its only trial and interested to see Michael McNab on the reins
Longer Odds

( J-Jasmine Fawcett )
( T-Lance O'Sullivan & Andrew Scott )
we've noted that invariably this stable's runners are much improved second up

5 Quondo
Dividend : $1.75, $1.24
Won
F: 703X1B(4)W(57.0)
( J-George Rooke )
( T-Andrew Forsman )
Having won its trial to prepare, there was good support for this Andrew Forsman runner when resuming. It went on to record an impressive win and looks like a 3yo that will rise through the grades
Main Danger
6 Amazonia
F: 44310B(3)W(55.0)
( J-Jack Taplin )
( T-John Bell )
Trainer thinks well of this mare and it got home on a Heavy9 two back at Rotorua. Disappointed a bit when taken to New Plymouth last time but will be more at home today in these track conditions
Next Best
4 Moneypenny
F: 425X1B(5)W(57.0)
( J-Ace Lawson-Carroll )
( T-Barbara Kennedy )
Good performance to beat Erin Go Bragh a month ago when resuming, and that one has gone on to win when beating Ribraka. Could well go back to back
Consider
8 Oratia Beauty
F: 69X62B(1)W(54.0)
( J-Courtney Barnes )
( T-Kylie Hoskin )
Not far behind King's English two back in a Stakes race and that's good form for this
Longer Odds
1 Takeshi
Dividend : $6.00
Place
F: 10990B(2)W(60.0)
( J-Joe Nishizuka )
( T-Danny Walker & Arron Tata )

Dividend : $2.60
Place
F: 7X741B(6)W(59.5)
( J-Michael McNab )
( T-Samantha Logan )
Both this one's wins have come on a Heavy10, including at its last start at Te Aroha three weeks ago. Looks progressive
Main Danger
5 Purosangue
Dividend : $3.80, $1.70
Won
F: 5210B(2)W(59.0)
( J-George Rooke )
( T-Lance O'Sullivan & Andrew Scott )
Excuse this one's last run as clearly things weren't right and it was never a winning chance. Prior form has been very good and hard to beat today
Next Best
3 Opressor
F: 143B(4)W(59.5)
( J-Sam McNab )
( T-Danny Walker & Arron Tata )
You've got to think this 4yo has its share of ability given it won on debut on a Heavy track and has run two nice races since. Gets every chance from gate 4 and claiming apprentice rides again
Consider
10 Starlit Express
F: 3137XB(5)W(57.0)
( J-Samantha Collett )
( T-Tony Pike )
Tony Pike gave this one a run at Stakes company to assess its ability in its last run in its last campaign in February. Resumes and will be more mature
Longer Odds
7 Tonia's Dragon
F: 68124B(8)W(58.0)
( J-Joe Nishizuka )
( T-Pam Gerard )
This stable's runners have been going better of late and this one rates a chance

10 Prisca
Dividend : $3.10, $1.55
Won
F: 0X540B(2)W(56.5)
( J-Hayley Hassman )
( T-Catherine Cameron )
Good effort in a R75 last start, finishing behind Boxmoss which subsequently went on to frank the form in impressive fashion. Gets 2kg claim with Hayley now taking over the reins
Main Danger
2 Sweet But Psycho
Dividend : $2.20
Place
F: 75754B(10)W(58.0)
( J-Michael McNab )
( T-Lance O'Sullivan & Andrew Scott )
Up to middle distance for the first time this campaign three weeks ago and was less than three lengths from the winner. It was a satisfactory effort considering the first two home look like being good stayers in the future
Next Best
4 Mo Charaid
F: X5070B(12)W(58.0)
( J-Sam McNab )
( T-Terry Wenn )
This one will love the Heavy track today and now stepping up to 2100m for the first time, we expect to see an improved performance
Consider
5 Alaskan
F: 68X25B(6)W(57.0)
( J-Jack Taplin )

Just in behind Sweet But Psycho
Longer Odds
15 Jamaican Boy
F: 44857B(4)W(56.0)
( J-Rihaan Goyaram )
( T-Shane Crawford )
This one might have been missed in the market as it was within three lengths of Boxmoss last start

Top Pick
Best "Each Way"
7 Tenfoot Tall
Dividend : $3.00, $1.40
Won
F: 00X05B(2)W(55.0)
( J-Jasmine Fawcett )
( T-Vicki Prendergast )
Has always looked to have potential and judging by its resuming run two weeks ago, and winning trial prior, it might be ready to realise that. Both wins have been in the Heavy and now steps up to middle distance
Main Danger
4 Whatthemansaw
F: 53112B(1)W(57.5)
( J-Lynsey Satherley )
( T-Debbie Sweeney )
While its recent form has been excellent, it now finds itself carrying 57 1/2 kg in a R75, having been in a highweight three back. Progressive though and might still win
Next Best
5 Dance For Her
F: 08X41B(5)W(55.5)
( J-Matthew Cameron )
( T-Tony Cole )
Got back to its winning ways last time and rates a chance on that, given there's very little depth in this field. Will enjoy the extra distance here
Consider
3 Heza Sharp One
Dividend : $1.80
Place
F: 87114B(8)W(57.5)
( J-George Rooke )
( T-G A & D G Rogerson & Clint Isdale )
This new training partnership has hit the ground running and this one has led the way for the stable. Should go on with it but note it has been unplaced in all its 4 runs in the Heavy
Longer Odds
8 Erase
Dividend : $1.85
Place
F: 35621B(4)W(54.5)
( J-Joe Nishizuka )
( T-Stephen Ralph )
Although it was only a maiden it won last time, it has to go in as none of the 'roughies' look to have much to offer in this Cup race

Time: 3:12 PM | Distance: 1400 m | Prize $ 80000
Top Pick
1 Churchillian
Dividend : $4.20, $1.85
Won
F: 12915B(7)W(57.0)
( J-Samantha Collett )
( T-Tony Pike )
Highest rated galloper in the field and simply looks to have too much ability for this field. 100% success rate from two runs in the Heavy and Sam Collett returns from her European holiday to take the ride
Main Danger
14 Platinum Diamond
F: X6927B(8)W(55.5)
( J-Matthew Cameron )
( T-Lisa Latta )
It was the one to chase home Churchillian two back, at two lengths, and in behind it again last time. And looks like the one to be the biggest danger again
Next Best
12 Astoria Brooke
F: 5X044B(4)W(57.0)
( J-Michael McNab )
( T-Tony Pike )
Tony Pike has a strong hand with three good chances. This one has won three from three in the Heavy so you know it will run well
Consider
2 Grande Gallo
F: X6251B(9)W(57.0)
( J-Masa Hashizume )
( T-Lance O'Sullivan & Andrew Scott )
This 5yo is not without a chance, from this good stable. A last start winner, the Heavy track and distance are in its favour
Longer Odds
8 Miss Bo Peep
F: 4X175B(10)W(57.0)
( J-Erin Leighton )
( T-Lance O'Sullivan & Andrew Scott )
Has looked good when on its day and wasn't too far away last start

Top Pick
3 Ribkraka
F: 8X063B(5)W(57.5)
( J-Hyeontaek Oh )
( T-Lance O'Sullivan & Andrew Scott )
Also accepted for Race 3.
Caught the eye when finishing just a length behind a decent type two weeks ago. That was its first run back so will be improved. With 4kg claim, gets in well here
Main Danger
12 Sexy And I Moet
Dividend : $2.10
Place
F: 0X314B(2)W(54.0)
( J-George Rooke )
( T-Stephen Marsh )
Only 1/2 length behind our Top Pick last start after winning prior. Looks very capable and should be at peak fitness now
Next Best
1 Principled
F: 15X01B(7)W(59.5)
( J-Matthew Cameron )
( T-Paul Richards )
Bolted in by over 5 lengths last time, when on a Heavy10 track and despite coming out of gate 13. Stays in R75 today and won't be paying $54 again
Consider
11 Prudentia
F: X5135B(1)W(54.0)
( J-Masa Hashizume )
( T-Lance O'Sullivan & Andrew Scott )
Good stable and worth consideration. Has only had the 9 starts but has won two, both on Heavy track conditions
Longer Odds
Best "Roughie"
5 Loch Katrine
F: 64X10B(8)W(56.0)
( J-Michael McNab )
( T-Daniel Miller )
A trainer whose runners we keep an eye on. All three wins have been in the Heavy, plus it has placed 8 times in such conditions

Top Pick
5 Jamestown
F: 0X4B(8)W(58.5)
( J-Hayley Hassman )
( T-Diana Kennedy )
This is what we said when it ran 4th as a $30 shot at the beginning of the month: "Only start to date was last October but there was something there to suggest it had potential. Resumes today" Finished only 2 lengths away and we're sticking
Main Danger
9 Muchacha
F: 0X464B(4)W(56.5)
( J-Samantha Collett )
( T-Tony Cole )
Just the four runs and showed good improvement last start. Could go in with it but taking on trust it will handle the track conditions
Next Best
3 The Mailman
F: 64302B(11)W(58.5)
( J-George Rooke )
( T-Stephen Marsh )
1 1/2 lengths ahead of our Top Pick last start. Very game effort after coming out of gate 14 last time and having the photo finish go against it by the narrowest of margins

1 Da Ace
Dividend : $3.70, $1.70
Won
F: 42343B(12)W(58.5)

8 Lady Charlton
F: 3083B(1)W(56.5)
( J-Jack Taplin )
( T-Peter & Jessica Brosnan )
This stable's runners have been of a higher standard this last year and this 4yo looks like its starting to show up. Rails draw
