Burning Magic can lead off the rail. Pace moderate as Cubitt And Cundy finds an easy lead from the low draw. KIA ORA STAR was an easy winner fresh then was well held in tougher grade second up over 1400m. Fitter again and leading rider back on today. Can bounce back. THE ENCHANTRESS was wide throughout latest but lifted strongly to score a narrow win. Harder here but down in weight and will be running on hard. ELSA'S TRIBE was a second up winner after being slowly away. Skips a grade but claim helps and will be steaming home again. FAIR FOOT is also a last start winner and rates among the chances. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keen on Kia Ora Star.
