  Stephen Marsh runner that has 2yo racing experience on its side. Also drawn wide, it won its only trial to prepare for its debut run

  Consider

  

  8 Fiamma  

  F: 4X   B(7)  W(55.5)

   ( J- Joe Doyle )

   ( T- Lance O'Sullivan & Andrew Scott )

  With the favourite in the race, these trainers wouldn't be running this unless it was a chance

  11 Scaredoheights  

  F: 530X4   B(4)  W(56.5)

   ( J- George Rooke )

   ( T- Peter & Shaun McKay )

  Forget its resuming run at Ruakaka when the 12000m was too short. Will have taken improvement from that

  Main Danger

  

  8 Rippin Along  

  F: 84523   B(6)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Erin Leighton )

   ( T- Maxim & Samantha Van Lierde )

  Place

  F: 6543   B(1)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Samantha Collett )

  You had to rate its run last time when finishing into third, despite coming out of gate 13. Rails draw today and the in-form Sam Collett takes over

  Consider

  

  10 Sweet Torquer  

  F: 25736   B(11)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Warren Kennedy )

   ( T- Samantha Logan )

  Trainer was happy with its last run and now steps it up to what should be a more suitable 1600m

  Won

  F: X7801   B(4)  W(62.0)

   ( J- Samantha Collett )

   ( T- Mark Brosnan )

  This 8yo has been a revelation over the last 18 months, having had a lot of racing but has delivered and now won 9 races and been second 8 times. That's the best credentials here and it will be better for its resuming run

  Main Danger

  

  3 Fly My Wey  

  F: 51834   B(2)  W(55.0)

   ( J- Jack Taplin )

   ( T- Mark Brosnan )

  Here's another 8yo that has improved in the latter part of its career and wasn't far behind Diamond Jack at Te Rapa

  Next Best

  Dividend : $2.70

  Place

  F: 70020   B(3)  W(54.0)

   ( J- Hayley Hassman )

   ( T- Kylie Fawcett )

  They'll no doubt run this one closer to the pace today and that should see it in the mix

  F: 14271   B(5)  W(54.0)

   ( J- Matt Cartwright )

   ( T- G A & D G Rogerson & Clint Isdale )

   ( J- Joe Nishizuka )

  8 Sweet But Psycho  

  Dividend : $1.80

  Place

  F: 54322   B(4)  W(58.0)

   ( J- Michael McNab )

   ( T- Lance O'Sullivan & Andrew Scott )

  This 6yo should get a deserved win here today. Beaten a length last start, it is 2 1/2kg better off with the winner that day and Michael McNab is riding well

  Main Danger

  

  3 Afore Ye Go  

  F: 761   B(2)  W(59.0)

   ( J- Warren Kennedy )

   ( T- John Bell )

  Astute trainer, he only gave this one its debut three starts ago, and as a 5yo. Yet it progressed to win last time and looks to have good potential

  11 With Grace  

  Dividend : $8.50, $2.90

  Won

  F: 00861   B(6)  W(57.0)

   ( J- George Rooke )

   ( T- Kylie Hoskin )

  Got the better of Sweet But Psycho at Ruakaka and runs in a R65 again. With George Rooke sticking, we'll be surprised if it isn't there at the business end today

  Consider

  

  4 Arjay's Flight  

  F: 89533   B(1)  W(59.0)

   ( J- Matthew Cameron )

   ( T- Shaun Phelan )

  Goes in as that was an improved run last time and it can improve further. Whether that's enough to be winning, time will tell

  6 Guipago  

  F: 708F1   B(11)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Niranjan Parmar )

   ( T- Mark Brosnan )

  A winner last time, it may be the hurdling has stimulated it and with this being over 2400m, it will have the fitness on its side

• Top Pick

  

  5 Amazonia  

  F: 31052   B(1)  W(55.5)

   ( J- Craig Grylls )

   ( T- John Bell )

  The less fancied of the two John Bell runners but we think it's the better chance, now its up to 1600m. Thought it might have been at better odds but then we note Craig Grylls has been called up

  Main Danger

  

  2 Zenith  

  Dividend : $3.50, $1.50

  Won

  F: X6051   B(8)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Matt Cartwright )

   ( T- John Bell )

  There's no question this other runner for John Bell will be hard to beat, having put them away by over 7 lengths last start here four weeks ago. That was its first run at today's distance and now a senior rider takes over

  Next Best

  

  4 Afterglo  

  Dividend : $2.00

  Place

  F: 45124   B(7)  W(55.5)

   ( J- George Rooke )

   ( T- Stephen Autridge )

  Trainer said this 5yo didn't go the distance when stepped up to 2100m in the Heavy here two weeks ago and is confident of a good showing now they've dropped it back

  Consider

  

  1 Ribkraka  

  F: 39153   B(6)  W(59.5)

   ( J- Kyle Wilson-Taylor )

   ( T- Lance O'Sullivan & Andrew Scott )

  Has won twice on this track and will be much better suited to the Soft track conditions today

  Longer Odds

  

  9 Mineshaft  

  F: 0X974   B(4)  W(54.0)

   ( J- Joe Doyle )

   ( T- Pam Gerard )

  Joe Doyle sticks and there's some value at these odds when you consider it was only just over two lengths behind Drommy last time

  Place

  F: 12X   B(2)  W(60.0)

   ( J- Michael McNab )

   ( T- Ken & Bev Kelso )

  Lightly raced with only the two runs earlier this year to date for the 5yo, it looked to have trained on well over its spell when trialling two weeks ago, and we'll be surprised if its beaten

  Main Danger

  Place

  F: 05329   B(4)  W(56.0)

   ( J- Craig Grylls )

  A capable 5yo, disregard its run when taken to Otaki three weeks ago. Trainer said it didn't take to the travelling and is expecting it to bounce back here

  Won

  F: 30643   B(3)  W(58.0)

   ( J- Matt Cartwright )

   ( T- Stephen Marsh )

  Stephen Marsh had three winners on Thursday and this one could add to the tally, with a good run from gate 3 and Matt taking over the reins

  2 Faultless  

  F: 7028X   B(8)  W(59.0)

   ( J- Hayley Hassman )

  Won

  F: 0X7LX   B(10)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Michael McNab )

   ( T- Ken & Bev Kelso )

  This classy 5yo mare should be taking this out, in its first run on the track. Resumes from a five month spell after going nicely to win a trial two weeks ago and should be spot on today

  Main Danger

  

  1 First Five  

  F: 2111X   B(4)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Wiremu Pinn )

   ( T- David Greene )

  What a revelation this sprinter was earlier this year, competing the hattrick before being spelled. Its been going super since its return to the stable and the trainer is excited for its upcoming races

  F: 29151   B(1)  W(56.5)

  2 Crocetti  

  F: 0X80X   B(6)  W(58.5)

  Won

  F: 59X56   B(7)  W(59.0)

   ( J- Jack Taplin )

   ( T- Mark Forbes )

  Considered good enough to run in the Derby in March, it has had two runs this time up but both have been over 1300m. Third up today, it steps up to a more suitable 1500m

  F: 3100X   B(2)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Wiremu Pinn )

   ( T- Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )
