CHAL VEE POWER (1) drew a wide gate last start and was easily accounted for, beaten 13 metres into fifth at Ashburton Raceway over 2400m. Finds a nice race and from this nice draw can make amends. ALMIGHTY CLEVER (8) drew wide last start and was never a genuine threat, beaten 13 metres into seventh at Ashburton Raceway over 2400m. Tactics will be crucial from this wide draw. Finds a suitable assignment and can bounce back into winning form. KING ARTHUR (4) is on the radar after his last-start fourth over 2400m at Ashburton Raceway a week ago.
