| 2 | | 361334 | Toby Tom B | 2 | Ft | Blair Orange | Usual honest outing last week to continue run of form. Drawn to be a contender. |
| 3 | | 1P7145 | Topaz | 3 | Ft | Ricky May | Ran on well on Sunday, albeit in a slightly lesser grade. Draw makes her a hope. |
| 4 |  | 15X489 | Sweet Raine | 4 | Ft | Leo O'Reilly | Got back & stayed back from this draw 21 Mar. Capable of she settles closer. |
| 5 | | 53X825 | Jukebox Gypsy | 5 | Ft | Gerard O'Reilly | More good than bad in three runs back this campaign. Should keep improving. |
| 6 | | 702230 | Just Foxin | 6 | Ft | Tim Williams | Didn't have all favours 21 Mar & may find this a little easier. Don't dismiss. |
| 7 |  | 455773 | Kotare Kelso | 7 | Ft | Bob Butt | Grabbed late at Reefton & form over summer was middling. Place preferred. |
| 8 | | 321960 | Sofia Rose | 8 | Ft | Sheree Tomlinson | Battled after getting shuffled back from inside draw at Rangiora. Market watch. |
| 9 | | 879224 | Dancing Desire | 9 | Ft | Sam Thornley(J) | Chased well in stronger grade 28 Mar. Draw makes it tough, but she's in form. |
| ---------------------------- Second Line ---------------------------- | |||||||
| 10 |  | 421842 | Franco Tim | 10 | Ft | Gemma Thornley(J) | Smart 2nd here 28 Mar & the winner has won again since. Don't underestimate. |
| 11 |  | 342816 | Hi Hopes | 11 | Ft | Seth Hill(J) | Honest attempt as favourite at Timaru. Seeking right run through but has claims. |
| 12 | | 107505 | Bad Habits | 12 | Ft | Craig Ferguson | Waited for his shot 28 Mar but handy when clear. Add to multiples in this. |
| 13 | | 202113 | Ann Sophie | 13 | Ft | Wilson House(J) | Racing like a happy mare & ran on well at Ashburton. Should be running on. |
| 14 |  | 122286 | Sophia Bromac | U1 | Ft | Riley Harrison(J) | OK in last two but lethal when she gets a drag into it. Look for her late again. |
