1 | 094096 | | | Red River Lochee | 1 | Ft | John McDermott | Spent petrol to work to the lead on Saturday and beaten less than 4L. F4 fringe. |
2 | 600607 | | | Gerald | 2 | Ft | Gavin Cook | He couldn't do it at both ends in equivalent race on 1st day. Looking elsewhere. |
3 | 100000 | | | Classie Regal | 3 | Ft | Mike Stratford | Soundly beaten by Hot Off The Press on the weekend. Likely to struggle again. |
4 | 060060 | | | Caesar Rocks | 4 | Ft | Graham Sinnamon | Positive from inside alley here but no resistance when acid went on. No thanks. |
5 | 890062 | | | Pegasus Kommander | 5 | Ft | Sheldon Murtha | Rounded off strongly after tardy getaway on 1st day. Should acquit himself well. |
6 | 092737 | | | Queen Of Glory | 6 | Ft | Sheryl Wigg | Pass mark when midfield to Hurricane Banner. One to consider for minor spoils. |
7 | 904884 | | | Veneto | 7 | Ft | Barry White | Held 4th from near-enough trip on Saturday. Will need to dig deeper to win this. |
8 | 362214 | | | Two Ply | 8 | Ft | Graeme Anderson | Cheeky bid after copping horror trip on the weekend. Huge threat if unscathed. |

12 | 482104 | | | Romanite | 12 | Ft | Neil Munro | Fresh legs to the meeting and always worth a look in amateur grade. Respect. |
13 | 833370 | | | Highland Reign | 13 | Ft | Cheree Wigg | Didn't get rub of the green on Saturday. Easier assignment. Can swamp them. |
14 | 080098 | | | Earthbound | 14 | Ft | Mike Love | Spotted putting in some nice late work on 1st day. Shot at thin end of First 4. |

2 | 536232 | | | My Eyre | 2 | Ft | Peter Davis | All around the honey jar. Late clear on 1st day. Eyre has his eye on the prize. |
3 | | | | Gentle Gen | 3 | Ft | | |
4 | 000 | | | Ken's Dream | 4 | Ft | Nathan Williamson | Unsighted after breaking in grass debut at Orari. Needs confidence-builder. |
5 | 364707 | | | Still Eyre | 5 | Ft | Ricky Allen | Mistakes creeping into his game. Patience wearing thin but this field thin too. |

7 | 066005 | | | Miss Bamboocha | 7 | Ft | Alex Milne | Late break made no difference to her placing on Saturday. Manners the worry. |
8 | 000473 | | | Thunder Buddy | U1 | Ft | Matthew Williamson | Always had his share of ability and coming to it now. Leave out at your peril. |
9 | P70070 | | | Bonny Reece | U2 | Ft | Kirstin Barclay | Yet to behave and maintain her gait in 6 starts. Others are safer propositions. |
10 | 80P003 | | | Spur Me On Gently | U3 | Ft | | |

5 | 745800 | | | Givemewhatineed | 5 | Ft | Ricky May | Form is on the slide. Stewards' warning after tossing his toys Feb 17. On faith. |
6 | 795688 | | | Lady's Lass | 6 | Ft | | |
7 | 304662 | | | Fun Sponge | 7 | Ft | Blair Orange | Fought all the way to the line on Saturday. Repeat effort puts her in the frame. |

2 | 908 | | | Trompeur | 2 | Ft | Brad Williamson | Eyecatcher on Saturday when he made up many lengths in the straight. Nice odds. |
3 | 258737 | | | Loissonya | 3 | Ft | Sarah O'Reilly(J) | Placed three times on grass but hoped to see more fight on the 1st day. Tested. |
4 | 745 | | | Complete Package | 4 | Ft | Brent Barclay | Pass mark from wide draw at Winton. Fit enough to put his best on the deck. |
5 | 4576 | | | Mach O'Melley | 5 | Ft | Dexter Dunn | Took a while to find the lead on Saturday before being reeled in. Can improve. |
6 | 04045 | | | Franco June | 6 | Ft | Blair Orange | Dug deep for close 5th after midrace move on the 1st day. Won't die wondering. |

3 | 31078P | | | Allandale | 3 | Ft | Rory McIlwrick | Broken near-side hopple ended his day on the weekend. Odds could be fruity. |
4 | 645365 | | | Rainy River | 4 | Ft | Chris McDowell | Pass mark after striking interference on 1st day. Crumb nibbler. Happy to risk. |
5 | 571493 | | | Grace Burns | 5 | Ft | Blair Orange | Overcame early break to register a strong 3rd here. Expect another honest bid. |
6 | X22P71 | | | Dying To See You | 6 | Ft | Dexter Dunn | Smart win after being caught in traffic on Oamaru grass. Can handle grade rise. |

1 | 527809 | | | Glenisthebettor | 1 | Ft | Robert Anderson | Draw had a big bearing on the 1st day. Thin end of First 4 best in this line-up. |
2 | 498065 | | | Jay FM | 2 | Ft | Blair Orange | Led and overhauled on the weekend. Inside draw and Blair Orange. Keep safe. |
3 | 550752 | | | Stompem | 3 | Ft | Dexter Dunn | One of the runs of the day on Saturday. Rattles cages if close on the corner. |
4 | 002677 | | | Blingiton | 4 | Ft | Jonny Cox | Middle-of-the-pack behind Big Smoke. Draw and smaller field helps. Value. |
5 | 636421 | | | Lis Amore | 5 | Ft | Rory McIlwrick | Richly-deserved winner on 1st day of the meeting. Minor spoils look best today. |
6 | 099087 | | | Man I'm Good | 6 | Ft | Alister Kyle | Nothing finished faster in his race on Saturday. Drops in grade. Rates highly. |
