Toodaloo may lead. LEONARDO sits handy and did a good job placing FU after being wide. She’s got more to offer and this looks winnable off the brief freshen. DRAGON didn’t have the best of it FU but improved his debut rating and had trialled well. Draws out but should go close in a tricky contest. TOODALOO placed from the speed on debut at Taupo and can run another bold race drawn an inside gate.
This maiden has had a poultice of scratchings already but still has plenty of pace and pressure. LEONARDO has good dash and will be hard to beat with a senior rider atop. The resuming NEXT UP is a wonder breed and they all win multiple races and get better with age. This now 5yo gelding looked ready to rumble when runner up in a trial last month behind a since good thing beaten on raceday. TOODALOO showed dash on debut to place and is a trifecta and first four chance. Dragon has run into two gifted fillies so far. If run from a wide gate then has to be included. Pokuru Wild on debut has in four trials won once and placed three times. Her first two trials have seen the form stand up on raceday since. Descendant is a reject back from Hong Kong after one start and they find the depth in New Zealand these days so easy it is not funny. Fourth in a trial last month. SUGGESTED PLAY: Leonardo has upside.
