Verdict
VICKEZZMARGAUX (7) has needed time to mature, and she looks set for her best season yet as a 5-year-old. She made up a lot of ground when finishing third at Whanganui nearly 3 weeks ago, and in a modest field, she is the one to beat for us. CHELSEA ROSE (6) has been steadily building up her fitness and confidence in 3 starts back from a spell. She can secure a spot closer than normal here, and if the pace is genuine, then she can run into a top 4 placing this time. BILLY (2) ended up getting too far out of his ground at Tauherenikau 9 days ago, and ran on too late for sixth. He was third there before that, and is right in this. Each-way. VANRIO (3) just battled at Waipukurau when resuming from a spell on a day when they were not running on at all. The extra 500m is the key, and he will be a sharp improver at odds. RICHARD FARRELL (4) was another who battled on late at Waipukurau nearly 5 weeks ago. He won't lack fitness, and is well worth including in any top 4 combos.
