Moderate run when resuming at Addington then improved sharply last time when third over 2000m at this track, beaten 8 metres. Rates highly and is a leading player.

Didn't perform well last start from an awkward draw when sixth at this track over 2000m, beaten 6 metres. Worth another chance from a much better draw.

Safely held last time when 35 metres from the winner in 11th over 2400m at Ashburton Raceway. This looks a far sterner test.

Easily accounted for last time at the first run of the campaign when 35 metres from the winner in 11th over 1980m at Addington. Won't find this easy. Not keen.

Has been outside the top three recently, last time out finishing eighth over 2000m at this track. Rates highly on best form and can bounce back.

Continued a long run of outs when eighth, 22 metres from the winner, at Ashburton Raceway over 2400m a week ago. Cannot enthuse on what we have seen of late.

Improved on her first-up effort at this track when third last start at this track over 2000m, beaten 1.4 metres. Further improvement in store.

Was only fair when resuming at this track then turned in a much better effort last time when 1.1 metres away in second over 2000m at this track. Fitter and should run well.

Finished third at this track two starts back then missed the frame but wasn't disgraced last time out over 2000m at this track. Sure to play a major role.

Ran a much better race last start when runner-up over 2400m at Ashburton Raceway, beaten just half a metre. With further improvement can go one better.

Registered a minor placing two starts back then a win three weeks ago by a neck over 2600m at this track. In form and should feature in the finish again.

Failed to measure up two runs back then last start was a well-beaten fourth over 2400m at Ashburton Raceway, 50 metres from the winner. Must improve sharply.

Is a last-start winner by 2.25 metres over 2600m at Addington. Looks hard to beat again.

Was plain when 23 metres away in ninth most recently at her first run back from a layoff over 2000m at this track. Needs to lift.

Won three back at Mt Harding but hasn't lived up to that form since, her latest effort a tenth at this track over 2000m, beaten 30 metres. One of the leading players on her best form.

Last raced four months ago when second over 2000m at Oamaru. Looks ready to fire after a recent trial win at Ashburton Raceway. Best efforts should see him go well.

Good effort last time to score by 2.75 metres over 2400m at Ashburton Raceway. Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.

Form average and it has been 10 runs since the last win. Last start finished sixth over 2400m at Ashburton Raceway. Capable of going a lot better.

Improved to finish third over 2400m at Ashburton Raceway last time out following a mediocre ninth at Addington the run prior. Sure to play a major role.
