A recent trial winner on a Heavy track, it will be very wet underfoot here today and that's perfect for its debut. Local jockey Lisa Allpress rides and knows the course well
Main Danger
4 Unmistakable
F: 00XB(7)W(56.5)
( J-Courtney Barnes )
( T-Stephen Marsh )
Trainer rates it a winning chance, and after two winning trials to prepare, it has clearly improved since its only two runs late last year
Next Best
2 Ytoa
Dividend : $2.35
Place
F:B(1)W(58.5)
( J-Masa Hashizume )
( T-Peter Lock )
Peter Lock has had a terrific 12 months or so and this one comes to its first race day start as a 6yo. It won its most recent trial and has drawn the rails
Consider
5 Asher
F:B(5)W(56.5)
( J-Kelly Myers )
( T-Guy Lowry & Leah Zydenbos )
Worth consideration on debut as the stable has produced other winners recently and it might be better than its trial form suggests
Longer Odds
3 King Kairos
F:B(6)W(58.5)
( J-Bruno Queiroz )
( T-Buddy Lammas )
A trainer that only brings them to race day when they're tuned up, and this one could surprise

Place
F: 2B(2)W(58.5)

Dividend : $1.50
Place
F: 65X62B(1)W(56.5)
( J-Leah Hemi )

3 Hot Hot Hot
F:B(4)W(58.5)
( J-Jonathan Riddell )
( T-Cody Cole )
Trainer has his first runner since his getting his licence back this week and will be keen to get amongst the winners again. Has drawn the outside barrier though
Consider
6 Baikal
F:B(3)W(56.5)
( J-Kyle Wilson-Taylor )
( T-G A & D G Rogerson & Clint Isdale )
You can expect a good run out of this one on debut, after two trials, and a stable that doe well in the CD

Dividend : $11.00, $3.00
Won
F: 777XB(3)W(58.5)
( J-Mereana Hudson )

Top Pick
5 Rippanall
F: X6381B(5)W(59.5)
( J-Kyle Wilson-Taylor )
( T-Bill Thurlow )
Hawera can be a demanding track so this one's performance to win there last Sunday was really good. Australian jockey takes over the reins
Main Danger
6 Bokushi
Dividend : $17.00, $4.80
Won
F: 24221B(3)W(59.0)
( J-Lemmy Douglas )
( T-Robbie Patterson )
Robbie Patterson runs this promising 4yo as well as well as Meloni and although the less fancied in the markets, we think its a big chance
Next Best
8 Meloni
F: 2X68XB(9)W(59.0)
( J-Craig Grylls )
( T-Robbie Patterson )
First run for nearly 10 months but won a recent trial to prepare. When this trainer/jockey partnership team up they're generally hard to beat
Consider
14 Sight Unseen
F: 35X21B(11)W(56.5)
( J-Joe Doyle )
( T-Bill Thurlow )
Only the five runs and shaping up nicely. Resumed from spell with a close up finish and then won at Hawera three weeks ago. Wide draw is the concern
Longer Odds
3 Whiskey N' Rye
F: 48024B(6)W(60.0)
( J-Lily Sutherland )
( T-Kevin Myers )
Locally trained and wasn't far off the progressive winner, in what was a competitive field

Top Pick
7 Reconvene
F: 92311B(7)W(55.5)
( J-Sarah Macnab )
( T-Tony Furness )
After running in a Stakes race, it was dropped back to maidens and had a confidence building win, before going about its work nicely to win over this distance at Hawera three weeks ago. Sarah is riding well and it can complete the hattrick
Main Danger
8 Illustrious
F: 5X123B(10)W(55.0)
( J-Craig Grylls )
( T-Robbie Patterson )
Two wins from its eight starts and has more upside. Craig Grylls is the key, having already won on it in July
Next Best
2 He's Lucid
Dividend : $1.80
Place
F: 66134B(1)W(60.5)
( J-Lisa Allpress )
( T-Kevin Myers )
Locally trained and ran good races at the Riccarton festival in its last two races. This field could be a bit easier too
Consider
3 Coney Island
Dividend : $2.35
Place
F: 16222B(6)W(58.5)
( J-Chris Dell )
( T-Lisa Latta )
Surprised to see Lisa Latta drop this one back to 1600m, after runs at Riccarton were over the middle distance. Don't discount chances
Longer Odds
6 Don's Legacy
F: 13961B(9)W(56.0)
( J-Lily Sutherland )
( T-Dennis Nunn )
Has done a lot of travelling in its recent starts and its clearly working as it won well last Saturday. On the quick back up and Lily rides on her home track

Top Pick
Best "Each Way"
4 Singletary
Dividend : $1.80
Place
F: 26X7B(1)W(57.0)
( J-Wiremu Pinn )
( T-Andrew Campbell )
Although it only finished seventh in the Ryder Stakes last time, note it was only 3 1/2 lengths from the winner. Can take that run forward and improve, as seen in its winning trial since. Rails draw
Main Danger
2 Out Of The Blue
F: 726X4B(9)W(57.0)
( J-Masa Hashizume )
( T-Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )
Hopefully it can overcome the wide draw as we thought that run at Taupo had 'next up' written all over it. Te Akau hard to beat in these features
Next Best
5 So Fear
F: 1137XB(2)W(55.0)
( J-Courtney Barnes )
( T-Stephen Marsh )
The less fancied in the market of the Stephen Marsh runners but rates a real chance, fresh up. Inside draw gives it every chance
Consider
8 Perfect Chaos
Dividend : $3.60, $1.60
Won
F: 2223XB(5)W(55.0)
( J-George Rooke )
( T-Stephen Marsh )
Four starts in its first campaign for three seconds and a third. Resumes and must be a chance to be in the mix but it is still a maiden
Longer Odds
6 O'Baby
Dividend : $3.10
Place
F: 1569B(4)W(55.0)
( J-Craig Grylls )
( T-Kurtis Pertab )
Looked very promising in its early races and with maturity now, might be ready to fulfil that. Craig Grylls is clearly a good booking

Top Pick
9 Honey Badger
F: 13251B(2)W(56.0)
( J-Kyle Wilson-Taylor )
( T-Tony Pike )
Tony Pike runner that has always had a bit of a reputation and we're now seeing why. Well weighted to go back to back, with this Australian jockey being handed the reins today
Main Danger
2 Belles Beau
Dividend : $8.00, $2.45
Won
F: 5337XB(1)W(60.5)
( J-Craig Grylls )
( T-Robbie Patterson )
Highest rated horse in the field, that is resuming from a 6 month spell. But has won a trial to prepare, is a course winner and craig Grylls rides
Next Best
11 Amazing Son
Dividend : $1.55
Place
F: X2121B(8)W(54.0)
( J-Bruno Queiroz )
( T-Lisa Latta )
Has made good progress this campaign, winning two of its four races, second in the other two. Scratched last week and now faces its toughest test
Consider
10 Belzoni
Dividend : $1.70
Place
F: X1722B(3)W(54.0)
( J-Wiremu Pinn )
( T-Lisa Latta )
Won a Stakes race back here in June and has run well since. The only concern is the drop back to 1200m
Longer Odds
7 Farravallo
F: 9X162B(9)W(57.5)
( J-Lisa Allpress )
( T-Roydon Bergerson )
Less than 1/2 length behind Honey Badger last time and that makes the relative odds generous. Local jockey rides

Top Pick
5 Subtle Image
Dividend : $1.50
Place
F: 52111B(1)W(54.0)
( J-George Rooke )
( T-Peter and Trent Didham )
Three of its five wins have come in the last two months, so this stable has brought considerable improvement. Those wins have been on the synthetic, you might say, but do note the last one was in the Championship Final at Cambridge
Main Danger
1 Belardo Boy
F: 63075B(5)W(60.0)
( J-Tom Wigram )
( T-Lisa Latta )
Has been a prolific winner, of 11 races, and would win this if close to its best. This talented apprentice adds to its chances and the 3kg weight relief
Next Best
2 Benefactor
F: 24812B(3)W(57.5)
( J-Wiremu Pinn )
( T-Lisa Latta )
That was a good run last weekend, when over 1600m. Now steps up to 2000m and good jockey takes the reins
Consider
7 Boomtown Boy
F: 43503B(7)W(54.0)
( J-Kelly Myers )
( T-Adrian Bull )
Showed signs of a return to its nest form when down at the Riccarton Festival and needs to be considered on that
Longer Odds
4 Wheelitin
Dividend : $4.00, $1.60
Won
F: 61355B(6)W(54.0)
( J-Mereana Hudson )

Hard to know when it's going to bring its best, but that makes it hard to leave out

Top Pick
13 Our Lady Brooke
F: 27X30B(2)W(57.0)
( J-Sarah Macnab )
( T-Bill Thurlow )
Trained nearby at Waverley and this looks like a good opportunity for it to get back into the winners enclosure. Stable is riding the crest of a wave since returning to the saddle
Main Danger
3 Indian Gold
F: 95303B(1)W(59.5)
( J-Sam McNab )
( T-Allan Sharrock )
Seen finishing to good effect into third when up to 2000m for the first time and should be there at the business end today. Rails draw
Next Best
10 Malleable
F: 50321B(13)W(58.5)
( J-Kelly Myers )
( T-Ralph Manning )
A trainer that has been rolling out winners for sometime now and this one comes here on the back of its maiden win. Could go on with it
Consider
1 Jack In The Box
F: 81055B(10)W(60.0)
( J-Tom Wigram )
( T-Diane Andersen )
Northerner down after running on the synthetic up there. Note it opened at $16 and has seen good support

F: 07L01B(3)W(58.5)
( J-Erin Leighton )
( T-Niall Quinn )
We had it in our selections last weekend and it saw support in the markets and won well. Locally trained and on the quick back up
