NEW MEXICO (16) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 1.5 metres from the winner in second over 1980m at Addington. Leading hope based on those recent efforts. TYRON EVEREST (8) made a good start to his career a week ago, beaten 7 metres into third over 2600m at Phar Lap Raceway. Tactics will be crucial from this wide draw. SECOND THOUGHTS (2) is ready to improve after debuting with a respectable fourth last time out over 1980m at Addington. TASMIN TROUBLE (10) has been steady in her last couple of runs, and she did enough last time out to suggest that she has each-way claims in this.
