Oppenheimer should lead but there are a few other speedy types who can keep him honest. JURISPRUDENCE (5) was a good close placing fresh up for a new yard here. Can go one or two better in this. SHOCKATILLATAP (2) has run good seconds here in both starts this time in. Quinella and trifecta chance. BELLARISTA (9) returned from a spell four weeks ago when she was eighth over 1200m at this track. Improver on fresh up run. Won her Maiden second up. Can handle wide gate. OPPENHEIMER (6) lost the rider last time out at Te Rapa. Trial winner here in April. Course placed. Sneaky one here. JADE DRAGON (10) has been not too bad since her Maiden win fresh up. Carpark barrier. SUGGESTED PLAY: Jurisprudence and Bellarista are win wagers.
