Verdict

B B KING (5) was successful last start by 5 metres at Rangiora over 1 ¼m after an encouraging minor placing the start before. He can measure up in better class as well, so stick with him. ELEKTRA KING (11) has been racing well of late. Finished fourth in a stronger field at her latest appearance over 1 ³/16m at Addington, beaten 4 metres. Should enjoy a nice smother from this draw and she will be looking for a split at some stage. Has the class to take this out. BETTOR BELLE (8) is the next elect off a last-start win by 2 metres at Cambridge Raceway over 1 ¹/16m. She has form on this course, and she will be right in the finish again. ANN SOPHIE (1) lands in the coveted pole position, and she is worth some thought based on her second over 1 ³/16m at Addington two runs ago.
