| Book | Form | Name | Draw | Hcp | Driver | Comment | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 |  | X830X5 | Bryson Dechambeau | 1 | Ft | Carter Dalgety(J) | Hauled in late after leading at Orari. Better for the run though. A key threat. |
| 2 | | 0X0900 | Dance With The Boss | 2 | Ft | Samantha Ottley | Battling from wide alleys so will appreciate this swing in draws. Needs to lift. |
| 3 | | 81079 | Colin McBride | 3 | Ft | ||
| 4 | | 6X7611 | Just Foxin | 4 | Ft | ||
| 5 |  | X43506 | Biggles | 5 | Ft | Ricky May | Gaps in short supply at Orari. Honest outing at Oamaru. Worth considering. |
| 6 | | 43912X | Farewell Spit | 6 | Ft | Jim Curtin | 6-1/4 length 3rd in hot trial 27 Nov. Strong winter form. Multiples hope fresh. |
| 7 |  | 170868 | Sky Rocket | 7 | Ft | Craig Ferguson | Disappointed when supported at Orari. Handy at Motukarara. Will have fans. |
| 8 | | 672494 | Stephs Boy | 8 | Ft | Blair Orange | Won at this meeting in 2021. Mixing his runs recently. Top3/4 contender. |
| 9 |  | 722103 | Post Painter | 9 | Ft | Robbie Close | Useful 3rd at Motukarara. No love in the draws, but capable enough to feature. |
| ---------------------------- Second Line ---------------------------- | |||||||
| 10 |  | 715177 | Country Gold | 10 | Ft | ||
| 11 |  | 107455 | Kotare Kelso | 11 | Ft | Bob Butt | Doing well from a variety of draws recently. Tricky draw but don't disregard. |
| 12 | | 008590 | Mikra Wave | 12 | Ft | Gerard O'Reilly | Never got out at Orari after working into it early. First4s with more luck here. |
| 13 | | 806941 | Don Juan | 13 | Ft | Riley Harrison(J) | Consistent type who was back in grass winning form 30 Nov. Place claims. |
| 14 |  | 478190 | Jose Quivera | 14 | Ft | Ross Cameron | Placed in only start here. Had work to do from wide draw 20 Nov. Top3/4 hope. |
