Genuine tempo with the speedy Globalist leading the way. GLOBALIST (2) is a lightly tried 5YO gelding heading in the right direction with his form, and he was only a length from the winner in second-place at Oamaru last start. He has poly track form, and from the pole position, he is set to go one better. CALL TO ARMS (1) ran on nicely late when finishing fourth fresh up off a wide gate at Oamaru in the same race as the top pick, and he will continue to improve with more racing. Each way. OUR SALLYANN (5) has gone really close to braking through for an overdue win in 3 of her last 4 starts, and she will be among the hardest to beat again. GOTA HUNCH (3) put in some big strides late when finishing runner-up last time out at Oamaru, and from a superior gate this time, he can figure in the top 3 again. WHITE PALACE (7) will be having her third start in the South Island, and she did enough fresh up here to allow her another chance in this. SUGGESTED PLAY: Globalist can win this.
