VALLI VINEYARDS & BREEN CONSTRUCTION 1400m Track: SOFT 5 True |

SABRINA HALL (9) ran on too late as a short-priced favourite at Ascot Park 17 days ago over a mile. She has a superior gate this time, and dropping back to 1400m will do her no harm. Go again. Follow your money. PEQUOT (5) was an upset winner at Riccarton just over 7 weeks ago, but did it in style in a strong BM65 field. He is good enough to measure up here as well, especially with 4.5kg less to carry. THE DIVINER (6) followed on from a stout effort for fifth at Riccarton in his penultimate start with a comfortable win at Ascot Park just over 5 weeks ago. He is improving, so stick with him. MY BOY ZAC (3) flew home for second over 1200m at Timaru 2 days ago and can go one better here. ON FILE (7) has been out of form, but can turn her form around in this sort of field. Don't risk her at long odds. SUGGESTED PLAY: Sabrina Hall can bounce back and win this.
