|---|---|---|---|---|
|
From their wide draws Jikon and Mamaea will press on and set a genuine tempo. LIFE OF RILEY (5) has been a beaten favourite in her last couple of starts, but she is far better than that. She will find this company more to her liking, and is likely to secure the run of the race from her good draw. If the rails are playing fair, then she can take this out. MAWKEB (2) made up a stack of late ground when finishing fifth here last time out. She cops another nasty draw, but if the gaps open up at the right time, then she can have the last say. Stick with her. WARRIOR OF WAR (9) built her form nicely to score a well-deserved win by a head at Riccarton just over 3 weeks ago. She revels in wet ground, and she has the scope to take the next step immediately. OCEAN BOULEVARD (10) was beaten but not disgraced in the Southland Guineas nearly a month ago. Stepping out to a mile will suit her, and she can improve enough to figure in the top 4 here. MAMAEA (1) raced back into form at Riverton last week, and dropping back to a mile should not be an issue. Stick with her. SUGGESTED PLAY: Life Of Riley can win, and Mawkeb will also be right in the finish.
