1	969757	Brett's Mate	1	Ft
2	911869	Majesdix	2	Ft	Matthew Williamson	Did her chips at the start at Winton. Back to front row though. Gold coin hope.
3	125220	Fear And Faith	3	Ft	John Morrison	Failed here 25 Oct, but previous age-grade form is your guide. Can atone.
4	198555	Jordan Anne	4	Ft	Nathan Williamson	Honest mare who can often get handy from inside draws. Top3/4 claims.
5	798317	Koko Kaboom	5	Ft	Scott Lethaby	Didn't give up here 25 Oct. 16 Oct maiden win was in midweek company. Stretched.
6	X0D631	What The Bell	6	Ft	Samantha Ottley	Held his nerve and manners for Kaikoura win. Good when he behaves. Chance.
7	172502	Oliver	7	Ft	Colin DeFilippi	Rattled home at Methven. Back to stand start here, but could offer cheek.
8	1544X	Dark Ghana	8	Ft
9	1	Countless Questions	9	Ft	Bronson Munro	Broke at Wednesday's trials in first outing since 25 Oct victory. Win or bust.
10	41404X	Krackaling	10	Ft	Brad Williamson	Has performed well fresh in the past. Taken on stronger fields before. Danger.
11	593826	Buffy Northstains	11	Ft	Sheree Tomlinson	Mixing her form a little these days but last two runs are sharp. Combos must.
12	858543	Prince Teka	12	Ft	Kyle Cameron	Tired after early lead bid at Kaikoura. Likes to lead but draw no help for that.
13	273803	Sunny Louis	13	Ft	Blair Orange	Worked home well at Methven in mobile affair. Reliable here. Place hope.
14	041080	Here Comes Jane	14	Ft	Peter Davis	Distant 6th at Wednesday's trials. Manners her downfall too. On the bench.
15	289034	The Bloss	15	Ft	Riley Harrison(J)	Torrid time in front at Kaikoura. 118th start at this course. Add to First4s.
16	846132	Nubliah Chamay	16	Ft	Kerryn Tomlinson(J)	Caught late after leading at Ashburton. Hard draw to do that here. Rough claims.
17	09520X	Ready Set Jet	U1	Ft	Bob Butt	Solid 3rd at Wednesday's trials in final prep for this. Could surprise today.
18	0X0100	Rock Lobster	U2	Ft	John Dunn	Not on her best behaviour since her maiden win 22 Sep. Take on trust here.

1	X11515	Tact McLeod	1	Ft	Samantha Ottley	Excellent through the spring & looks best with last shot at them. First4s spice.
2	844211	Aroda	2	Ft	Trista Dixon	Quality Queenslander who has drawn to give this a shake. Top3/4 option.
3	234264	Charlie Brown	3	Ft	John Dunn	Has done very little wrong in spring racing. May cuddle up & finish Top 6.
4	X46911	Mo'unga	4	Ft	Robbie Close	Hit his straps nicely in his last two. Has great speed. Needs trip to suit.
5	295X32	Don't Stop Dreaming	5	Ft	Blair Orange	Deserves support as form has been building nicely. Ready to pounce late.
6	X60406	American Me	6	Ft	Gerard O'Reilly	Kaikoura run hinted at form that earned him 4th in this last year. Needs luck.
7	153753	Better Eclipse	7	Ft	Greg Sugars	Ultra-consistent Victoria visitor. Overcame error at Kaikoura. Don't disregard.

13	X54068	Mach Shard	13	Ft	Scott Phelan	Hasn't recaptured his autumn form yet. Hasn't fired at 3200m. Tough ask.
14	3X1514	Republican Party	14	Ft	Carter Dalgety(J)	Placed over the extreme trip before. Adaptable type. Include in Top3/4 bets.
15	222111	Swayzee	15	Ft	Cameron Hart	Last year's winner making a surprise return. Will make this a staying test. EW.
16	5X0079	Beach Ball	16	Ft	Ricky May	Stepped OK at Wednesday's trials, but Cup Day is a different story. Not for us.
17	X11875	Dalton Shard	17	Ft	Bob Butt	Quiet 5th 06 Nov trials since Flying Stakes 5th. Hard to recommend from draw.
18	35X343	Alta Meteor	18	Ft	Tim Williams	Determined in three starts back but handed painful draw here. First4s.

3	X21331	Borrisokane	3	Ft	Sheree Tomlinson	Strong late for 7th at 06 Nov trials. Easy winner 18 Oct. A key contender.
4	31741	Bazooka	4	Ft	Blair Orange	Caught the eye out wide 06 Nov trials. First South Island start. Worth a look.
5	513802	Miki's Courage	5	Ft	John Dunn	Almost scored here 18 Oct in stronger grade. Should be prominent again.

13	211681	Magician	13	Ft	Carter Dalgety(J)	Got the job done in front here 25 Oct. Draw against him here, but can place.
