FLYING CELEBRATION (2) ran on too late as favourite for her new trainers at Otaki and finished a game fourth. She had won a trial easily before that, and she is perfectly placed in what is a very modest field here. Hard to beat this time, so follow your money. THE UGLY SISTER (1) won fresh up at Tauranga last prep and has had a recent tune-up trial at Foxton. If she is ready, then she can give this field a big shake. SHAWSHANK (3) made up a lot of late ground to finish fourth at Otaki 5 days ago. He is backing up quickly, which is always a good sign with the Kevin Myers team, so stick with him. OPAWA SCARLETT (4) has had some gear changes since a disappointing effort at Trentham just over 5 weeks ago. She has the ability, and gets her chance to show it here. Don't risk her. SANDOKU (6) has been very disappointing in 2 starts back from a spell. She is worth one more chance in this lineup.
