On debut out of a top stable and comes to race day after winning its last two trials
Main Danger
2 Off The Scales
Dividend : $1.90
Place
F: 32B(5)W(57.0)
( J-Joe Doyle )
( T-Shaune Ritchie & Colm Murray )
Beat Itchy Heart here to continue on from its promising debut run, and was scratched at Waverley on Sunday in preference to this
Next Best
3 Itchy Heart
Dividend : $2.20, $1.35
Won
F: 3B(3)W(57.0)
( J-Jasmine Fawcett )
( T-Glenn Old )
Good run on debut when well supported, and one would expect improvement, so should be in the finish
Consider
6 Rozezina
Dividend : $2.90
Place
F:B(1)W(55.0)
( J-Michael McNab )
( T-Lance Noble )
Worth a closer look as also out of the Lance Noble stable, with Craig Grylls up and rails draw
Longer Odds
1 Lassie
F: 427B(2)W(57.5)
( J-Lily Sutherland )
( T-Guy Lowry & Leah Zydenbos )
Would need to improve on its three runs to date but is the only 'roughie' in the race so goes in

4 Confectionist
Dividend : $2.80, $1.45
Won
F: 41711B(9)W(56.5)
( J-Michael McNab )
( T-Stephen Marsh )
Would be folly to overlook this one's chances as it is unbeaten on the synthetic. It has now won all its three races in its last four starts, all coming since running on this course and is also on a hattrick
Main Danger
2 Anton
F: 11438B(4)W(59.0)
( J-Tom Wigram )
( T-Glenn Old )
Excuse its last run as that was in the Championship Final when taken south to Awapuni. Resumes, goes well fresh, and good apprentice brings 3kg claim
Next Best
3 Perfect Habit
F: 740X5B(10)W(57.5)
( J-George Rooke )
( T-Mark Forbes )
Promising effort fresh up here, after running in the south in its prior races, and would be rated higher but for the wide draw
Consider
1 Vittorio Veneto
F: 13530B(3)W(61.5)
( J-Rihaan Goyaram )
( T-Peter Lock )
A five time winner, so has the ability to be showing up. Hard to ignore the early support in the market
Longer Odds
7 Track Tester
Dividend : $3.60
Place
F: 820X6B(1)W(55.5)
( J-Lynsey Satherley )
( T-Debbie Sweeney )

( J-Michael McNab )
( T-Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )
Showed good promise, without winning, in 5 runs in its first campaign and now resumes after a four month break. Won recent trial to prepare
Main Danger
7 O'Valerie
Dividend : $1.16
Place
F: 7XB(1)W(54.0)
( J-George Rooke )
( T-Paul Richards )
Rails draw and its only run was a good one, nine months ago in a Stakes race
Next Best
6 Handstand
Dividend : $1.95
Place
F: 23XB(2)W(56.0)
( J-Joe Doyle )
( T-G A & D G Rogerson & Clint Isdale )
Not far away when well supported in two runs at the beginning of the year. Now resumes after eight months spell and sure to have developed further
Consider
4 Apotheosis
F: X4X72B(8)W(56.5)
( J-Masa Hashizume )
( T-Steven Ramsay & Julia Ritchie )
Third up today after and nice run to be beaten less than 1/2 length over course/distance three weeks ago. Just needs to overcome wide draw
Longer Odds
2 Zac Gary
F: 70X25B(5)W(58.5)
( J-Sam McNab )
( T-Steven Ramsay & Julia Ritchie )
Third up this campaign so fit enough, and noted good support for it in last race

Top Pick
Best "Each Way"
6 Zivou
F: 6025XB(2)W(57.0)
( J-Abinith Simon )
( T-Roger James & Robert Wellwood )
Resuming after winning two from eight starts, and considering its last run was in behind King's English, you'd think it will find this a lot easier. 4kg claim
Main Danger
7 Paravane
F: 135X2B(4)W(56.0)
( J-Hayley Hassman )
( T-Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )
Te Akau's 4kg claimer rode this one into second last start and now Hayley is on the reins. That makes it hard to beat
Next Best
2 Legally Binding
F: 7192XB(5)W(63.0)
( J-Cooper Stumbles )
( T-Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )
Te Akau have put their 4kg claimer up on this one for its return. It was in a Open handicap when last at race day, in May, and this 970m should be ideal
Consider
3 Lady Iris
Dividend : $1.60
Place
F: 21251B(1)W(62.0)
( J-Tom Wigram )
( T-Stephen Marsh )
Ran in Stakes races last campaign and has picked up two wins in its last four starts. With rails draw here, it's chance can't be overlooked
Longer Odds
8 O'Sweet Darling
Dividend : $6.50, $2.00
Won
F: 10XB(3)W(54.0)
( J-Hyeontaek Oh )
( T-Chad Ormsby )
Have to include this one in our selections as connections considered it good enough to run in a G3 last start, back in February. Stable always has them 'ready to go' when fresh

2 Niagara Sky
Dividend : $3.80, $1.55
Won
F: 95339B(2)W(58.0)
( J-George Rooke )
( T-Ralph Manning )
Stable that continues its good run of form and should add to that today, with this one being third up and looking to have the best ability in the race. Excuse last run when clearly things didn't go right
Main Danger
1 Melkor
F: 30258B(8)W(59.0)
( J-Lily Sutherland )
( T-G A & D G Rogerson & Clint Isdale )
Resuming and ran against much better opposition to these in its last runs. Lily is a great booking

Dividend : $1.45
Place
F: 93X33B(5)W(57.0)
( J-Matt Cartwright )
( T-G A & D G Rogerson & Clint Isdale )
24 start maiden but switched back to the synthetic today, and has found a weak field
Consider

F: 44525B(6)W(58.0)
( J-Joe Doyle )
( T-Phillip Stevens )
Has gone better since stepping up to the 2000m, finishing close up in its last two starts

Dividend : $2.60
Place
F: 41067B(4)W(57.5)
( J-Masa Hashizume )
( T-Simon Rees )
Has won one from 9 starts and has its first run on the synthetic today. We think that can bring the necessary improvement

Top Pick
2 Mulan Ardeche
F: 75161B(7)W(59.5)
( J-Michael McNab )
( T-Stephen Marsh )
Stephen Marsh doesn't often has his runners on the quick back up, so take the tip. Michael McNab has a number of good rides today and he takes over on this one
Main Danger
4 Bright Thoughts
F: 7931B(5)W(55.5)
( J-Matt Cartwright )
( T-Stephen Marsh )
Went in the notebook as one to follow when breaking maidens here six weeks ago, at only its fourth start and second run at the distance. Has upside

1 Above The Clouds
Dividend : $4.20, $2.10
Won
F: 07128B(1)W(61.5)
( J-Rihaan Goyaram )
( T-Ralph Manning )
Chased home Mulan Ardeche two back and can be excused its run last time, when in Open company
Consider
7 Tarzador
F: 04361B(6)W(54.5)
( J-George Rooke )
( T-G A & D G Rogerson & Clint Isdale )
Has looked much better since returning to middle distance, and that was a determined effort when winning here three weeks ago
Longer Odds
6 Cyber Patch
F: 66317B(4)W(55.0)
( J-Ethan Jones )
( T-Catherine Cameron )
Although unlikely to be winning, could be one that completes your multi

Race 7 - ONYX CAFE CAMBRIDGE MDN 1550
Time: 4:45 PM | Distance: 1550 m | Prize $ 18500
Top Pick
1 Force Of Law
Dividend : $1.07
Place
F: 53332B(5)W(58.5)
( J-Michael McNab )
( T-Pam Gerard )
It's hard to believe this 5yo is a 21 start maiden when you look at its form over the last six months. Its best run to date was here last time and we'll be very surprised if it gets beaten today
Main Danger
3 Iron Throne
F: 04085B(2)W(58.5)
( J-Lily Sutherland )
( T-Darrel Lang )
Hasn't been far off them in its five starts to date and connections now switch it to the synthetic
Next Best
7 Refraction
F: 655B(1)W(56.5)
( J-Jasmine Fawcett )
( T-Glenn Old )
Trainer whose runners need to be respected, especially with Jasmine up, and with the extra 150m and rails draw, the EW odds are enticing
Consider

Dividend : $3.50, $1.28
Won
F: 086X4B(3)W(58.5)
( J-George Rooke )
( T-G A & D G Rogerson & Clint Isdale )
Will be better for resuming run and has to be considered a chance with the right run
Longer Odds
5 Messi Man
F: 809X8B(7)W(58.5)
( J-Matt Cartwright )
( T-G A & D G Rogerson & Clint Isdale )
Although 8th last start, was only four lengths from the winner and will be improved

3 Perlino
Dividend : $1.45
Place
F: 7131XB(1)W(58.0)
( J-Hayley Hassman )
( T-Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )
A winner of three from just seven starts, the last won was in a Stakes race in April. That's good enough for this and Te Akau will have it well prepared
Main Danger
7 Savina
F: 710X4B(6)W(54.0)
( J-Joe Doyle (+0.5) )
( T-Stephen Marsh )
Second up today and this Stephen Marsh runner could rise through the grades. Ran in the Oaks in February
Next Best
1 Lerado
F: 62431B(2)W(62.0)
( J-Tom Wigram )
( T-Stephen Marsh )
Stephen Marsh also runs this 7yo, which has a terrific record on the synthetic
Consider
2 Spanish Lad
F: 73420B(7)W(59.5)
( J-Masa Hashizume )
( T-John Bell )
Forget its last run when pitted against a good field at Ellerslie. Back to the synthetic, it is a five time winner on the track
Longer Odds
8 Emmy Dazzler
F: X5648B(10)W(54.0)
( J-Sienna Brown )
( T-Chris Wood )
This 6yo mare is better than its formline would suggest and could surprise them
