F: 2X581B(5)W(54.0)
( J-Mereana Hudson )

Main Danger
1 Riviera Rebel
F: 14811B(2)W(62.0)
( J-Jack Taplin )
( T-Graham Eade & Brooke Kincaid )
What a terrific handicapper this 6yo is and is on a hattrick today. Seven of its 10 wins have come on the track and would be a popular winner

Dividend : $1.80
Place
F: 17X68B(7)W(54.0)
( J-Kyle Wilson-Taylor )

An 8yo now but does need to be considered as a place chance, if you're doing multis

F: X7305B(9)W(54.0)
( J-Ace Lawson-Carroll )
( T-Michael & Matthew Pitman )
Ex northerner now with the Pitmans and it was less than two lengths from Riviera Rebel two weeks ago. A win wouldn't surprise

F: 2249XB(3)W(54.0)
( J-Kyle Wilson-Taylor )
( T-Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )
Te Akau bring this talented galloper south, for its first run in 5 months. Two recent trial wins so fitness should be spot on
Next Best
8 Shawshank
F: 11611B(9)W(56.0)
( J-Ace Lawson-Carroll )
( T-Samantha Wynne )
7yo that has made huge progress over the last few months. First run for 4 weeks after being scratched two weeks ago, and just wonder if it might be recovering from an injury. Early money suggests its been going well

F: 0261XB(7)W(59.5)
( J-Lemmy Douglas )
( T-Michael & Matthew Pitman )
There's not many Riccarton meetings when the Pitmans don't win one and this one might be their best chance. A capable type, it's fresh up from a spell after winning its last race over this distance
Main Danger
5 Cool Aza Rene
F: 424X2B(12)W(58.0)
( J-Kyle Wilson-Taylor )
( T-Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )

7 Mi Bella
F: 711X4B(9)W(57.5)
( J-Tom Wigram )
( T-Anna Furlong )
Talented young trainer took this mare to another level late in the autumn, before sending it to the spelling paddock. Resumed last month with a good first up run and we expect it to be there at the business end today
Consider
10 Nuncio
F: 4481XB(1)W(57.0)
( J-Corey Campbell )
( T-Les Didham )
Progressed to a win here in April and then spelled. Resumes here and favoured by the rails draw

Main Danger
9 Graffiti Artist
F: 175X5B(9)W(57.0)
( J-Corey Campbell )
( T-Sarah & Matthew Smith )
Another that is clearly well thought of as ran in Stakes races prior to its spell. Good run when resuming two weeks ago and does look capable of figuring in the finish here

Best "Roughie"
1 Pequot
F: 048X3B(7)W(60.0)
( J-Hayley Hassman )
( T-Lance Robinson )
Will be better for resuming run on the synthetic two weeks ago and the booking of Hayley Hassman certainly adds to its chances
