Verdict

SHARDS LYRIC (2) turned in a better run at her latest appearance when second over 1 ¼m at Rangiora, beaten 5 metres after trying to make all the running. She has the benefit of a good draw, and he is set to go one better. LOUS PINUP GIRL (6) filled a minor placing at Rangiora two runs ago before finishing third at her latest appearance over 1 ½m at Ashburton Raceway, beaten 7 metres. Leading hope if she can find a cosy spot early on. LA CONCHA (5) is worth another chance after a tough trip last-start over 1 ¼m at Rangiora a week ago. With a softer trip, he can figure in the top 4 here. OCEAN OF TEARS (3) cops a superior gate this time, and she is worth some thought after her last-start fourth over 1 ¼m at Rangiora on May 17.
