GROUP ONE TURF BAR 2000m Track: SYNTHETIC True |

|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Either Maria Martina or Laser Beam should find the front and dictate terms. REZINATE (3) stepped up to a middle distance for the first time here 4 weeks ago and failed to fire, finishing midfield after working hard in the early stages of that race. He has a superior gate this time, and he is worth another chance. On top for us. TURFQUAKE (1) was disappointing last time out as the favourite at Hastings nearly 4 weeks ago, but he did have an excuse as the track that day was very poorly prepared. He has a good gate here, and he can make amends on a poly track for the first time. Follow your money. ALLTHEKINGSHORSES (6) ran on late to finish in the money for the first time in her 3 starts career when third on this track a fortnight ago. She will continue to improve with racing, and she won't be in this grade for long. BRUTAL REALITY (7) may not have coped with an 11-day backup when finishing seventh at Awapuni-Synthetic last start. Her only placing to date came here in her penultimate start, and she is capable of bouncing back. ARKADUS (4) has top 4 claims. SUGGESTED PLAY: Rezinate can win this.
