NEW WORLD OTAKI HANDICAP 1200m Track: SOFT True |

|---|---|---|---|---|

Plenty of pace from Idyllic, Ima Brazen One and Royal Flower vying for the lead, with a few others keeping them honest. IDYLLIC (4) is a multiple class dropper here after leading up at G1 at last start then getting swamped. She is a course proven runner. Win chance on dry or wet footing. ROYAL FLOWER (5) is proven fresh up as well. Course winner and is a multiple class dropper in this. Sure to give a sight in this field. FANCY LIKE LASS (8) was game in defeat fresh up. Course proven and has won on dry and wet ground. Cannot be omitted. BELLE'S ECHO (7) has been placed in all of her runs here. Awkward draw but can't be omitted in this. CONOR O'CEIRIN (1) has a wide draw. Easier here than his last two starts. Is not out of this at overs. SUGGESTED PLAY: Idyllic and Royal Flower are win wagers.
