Verdict

HOSTILITY (8) was G1 placed as a juvenile, and has yet to feature in both of his starts as a 3-year-old, although he did have a genuine excuse at Taupo last time out. He cops a wide gate here, but in a maiden field, he should be too good on class alone. Follow your money. CAPOTE (1) was a beaten favourite on debut at New Plymouth on a bottomless track that day, and he then improved to be beaten by a nose at long odds at Taupo last time out in the same race as the top pick. He will continue to improve, and if his main rival finds trouble from out wide, then he can go one better here. TOO DARN SWEET (14) raced keenly in front on debut and stuck on gamely for second by a neck at Taupo 17 days ago. She cops a wide gate here, but is still some each way value. CURZON PARK (10) has not had much luck recently and cops a tough gate here, Stick with him at odds. LA REINA (16) is on debut and won't be far away.
