Verdict

NAVY ENSIGN (6) tried hard when finishing second as the favourite at Ellerslie nearly 2 weeks ago over 6 ½f, the extra ½f could make all the difference, and he deserves to go one better here. Follow your money. KHALEESI (9) has kept on improving at the trials and makes her debut from a handy gate. She is right in this, especially if the money comes for her. TEN TO TWO (2) has needed time to mature, and resumes as a much stronger gelding this season. His trial form is good, and he can't be taken lightly. Each way. STAY IN TOUCH (10) will be peaking third up and is suited to the step up to 7f. She meets an even lineup and can figure in the top 4 here. CAPTAIN STAN (1) cops a wide gate second up after finishing runner-up when resuming at Te Aroha a month ago. He is overdue to break through. Each way.
