TEAM FARRIER MOBILE PACE 2000m
MERLE MARY (9) finished fifth last start at Alexandra Park but was very competitive and not far from the placegetters. That continued her consistent form having put together a string of top-four finishes prior. With even luck from the back row she could break through. HES NOT THAT INTO U (6) made a nice return at his latest appearance a couple of days ago, finishing third at this circuit and distance. Draws wider but should be better for that hitout. BLINX (3) is looming as a threat after a good first effort for the new yard, finishing third at this circuit and distance on Tuesday. Tougher draw for VERA GRACE (13) but she went close on Tuesday and has upside. SUGGESTED PLAY: |

QUOTATION FOOD CART FOR ALL YOUR CATERING NEEDS MOB PACE 2000m
MR MIKI (3) did a good job to come from wider and finish third at this circuit and distance a couple of days ago, adding to a string of wins and placings. Scored the other two times he raced over this distance here. The good draw can see him back in the winners' list. VINCENT REACTRESS (8) came from a wide barrier on Tuesday but draws for a nice trail this time. Should be ready to peak fourth up so could be a big improver. GOORAMBAT ART (5) is another expected to perform better than he did on Tuesday while MAJOR MOONSHINE (6) added to a handy record at this circuit and distance with Tuesday's win and could take this next step.

LAWRENCE DECORATING HAWKES BAY MOBILE PACE 2000m
DAVE DULEY (4) put the writing on the wall when he finished second a couple of days ago at this circuit and distance. Draws a little lower so can get the job done. WHATZ MY CHOICE (3) came from the back row and finished fifth on Tuesday. Has the benefit of a good draw and should be reaching peak fitness now. Danger. JAHI (2) is aided by a favourable barrier and in the mix after making it back-to-back placings with a respectable third from the back line on Tuesday. DREAM BOYZ (5) broke the maiden at this circuit and distance on Tuesday in his first outing for Michael House. Could take the next step. SUGGESTED PLAY: |

HERB STENT MEMORIAL HANDICAP TROT 2500m
KINK (9) continued a strong run of recent form and deserved his victory last start, scoring over 2000m here on Tuesday. Goes back 15m in the handicap but owns a good record at this longer distance so could strike again. VERY MAJESTIC (7) produced another strong performance on Tuesday when she battled on bravely for second behind Kink. Meets that rival better at the handicap and she hasn't missed a place here. DARK GHANA (2) didn't do a bad job when sixth at Addington last time out. This looks a suitable assignment. REGAL GIRL (6) owns a good second-up record and must be considered after she finished third when resuming here a couple of days ago. SUGGESTED PLAY: |

ROYDEN WILLIAMS MANAWATU COUNTRY CUP HCP PACE 2500m
MELTON MOGUL (8) put together a string of wins at this venue earlier in his campaign and enjoyed the return to this circuit when runner-up on Tuesday. Won the only time he attempted this longer distance so could be hard to hold out. CLAUDE (1) should find this easier than recent attempts at Alexandra Park and did manage a win at Cambridge earlier in the year. Should enjoy the favours from this starting position. DREAM ON LOU (5) comes right into contention after scoring on Tuesday, giving him two wins and two placings from his last for outings. CAPTAIN KOBE (3) can feature again after placing behind Dream On Lou on Tuesday SUGGESTED PLAY: |

ZIP PLUMBING PLUS MOBILE PACE 2000m
CRITICAL IMAGE (8) recorded a strong performance on Tuesday when he battled on bravely for second in his first visit to this venue. Won't spend a penny from this draw. Big chance to go one better. RUN MASON RUN (2) comes here just a couple of days after finishing third at this circuit and distance. Gets the same draw again so looks the most likely danger. BENSON DUDE (1) has come from much wider barriers in the last two outings so could be an improver from the ace draw. ESTER LUCY (5) wasn't too far from the placegetters on Tuesday and returns to the front row. SUGGESTED PLAY: |

MANAWATU ITM HANDICAP TROT 2500m
TRAVELIN SOLDIER (8) was in the money two runs ago at Cambridge then produced another strong effort for second at this venue two days ago. Steps up in distance but looks close to a win and could achieve it here. TRIFOLIUM (2) recorded a string of top-four finishes before a seventh at his latest appearance at Alexandra Park. Likely to get the favours from this favourable starting position and this looks a suitable assignment. EAGLE HANOVER (5) is going well, winning here three back and placing in both outings since. Major player. SENIOR CONSTABLE LIZ (6) goes back to the 25m mark this time time but must be respected after scoring on Tuesday. SUGGESTED PLAY: |
