GOING:

TCL EARTHWORKS 1300m

Track: AW     True  

Reasonable tempo with a few going forward, headed by Pinky Pie. DEEP PURSUIT (1) has been freshened up since finishing runner-up here as an odds-on favourite 10 weeks ago. He has a good gate and should go close to breaking through for that first win. Follow your money. BELLE NOIRE (12) was checked at a vital stage when finishing midfield at Ruakaka fresh up there 18 days ago. She can make full use of the pole position and is poised to make amends. Each-way. PINKY PIE (7) is racing well and should have won her last start when desperately searching for room late. She is backing up quickly and will be among the hardest to beat. DEEP WATER BAY (2) has changed stables since his last start in January. He has had a tune-up trial, and the market will be your best guide. SUGGESTED PLAY: Pinky Pie is ready to win, and could even be at some each-way value.
