Verdict

MADAM ZARA (12) made ground from a mile back over the extreme distance two back then hit the line hard from midfield last time. Take holding out here. WRY SMILE (1) loomed on the turn from well back & fought hard for a narrow win at Te Aroha before running on OK last time. Look for him to finish hard again. TAI (4) was handy & took over turn but was swamped late when fresh 2 back then got back & stayed there last time. Latest too bad to be true. Look for improvement. LEPREKHAN (6) took control & skyed away midrace but effort told over the extreme distance 2 back then fought hard from on the pace last time. Place claims on a wet track.
