Many of these juveniles step out for the first time so a strong pace is anticipated. EL VAQUERO (2) is a Michael & Matthew Pitman trained two-year-old colt lining up for first race start. Looked good in a recent trial win. Dam has left the full brother Giussepe Ferrante (1 win). Can win this. FOUROFUS (1) has run well in three of four starts. Raceday experience matters. Quinella and trifecta must here. AZILEE STAR (5) faced the starter for the first time and finished seventh last start at Wingatui over 1100m, beaten 5 lengths. Improver here. Bred to handle the wet. Tote will tell you. MELO (12) is a two-start Maiden who finished eighth, beaten 6 lengths, when resuming from a spell last start over 1100m at Wingatui. Improver here. Bred to relish wet ground. Keep an eye on the market. FOUR THE MOMENT (3) is likely to improve on debut effort. Helped by an extra 100m. A placing or the first four is possible. SUGGESTED PLAY: El Vaquero is a win wager.
