MOUNTFIELD QUARRY 1600m Track: SOFT 6 Out 8m |

|---|---|---|---|---|
|
A strong tempo is assured with Loose Change and Loopy Farooki leading the charge. TEN TO TWO (2) was doing his best work late when finishing fourth fresh up on a very heavy track at Pukekohe 17 days ago over 1400m. He is bred to relish the step up to a mile, and he can improve enough to win this. ASCENSION (8) battled on strongly as favourite when finishing fourth at Te Rapa 4 weeks ago. She is bred to excel over more ground and will be peaking third up over a mile. Watch for her late. Can win. WITH GRACE (7) steamed home late to finish third by a head here 2 weeks ago in a stronger field than this. She has a senior hoop replacing an apprentice this time, and is ready to win at short notice. ARTURA (5) only battled on debut at Matamata over 1400m but will improve quickly once stepping up in trip. He has the blinkers on. Watch closely. LOOSE CHANGE (4) has some each-way claims in this. SUGGESTED PLAY: Ascension each way.
