Verdict

THAT'S GOLD (3) was a beaten favourite at Ellerslie nearly 4 weeks ago, but fought hard after getting keyed up when bursting through the gates prior to the start. He will need luck from the inside draw, but if the gaps come at the right time, he can have the last say here. KHALEESI (9) was an easy winner on debut before lifting late to score by a nose in a handy 7-horse field at Ellerslie just over 5 weeks ago. She has trialled nicely since then, and a good draw gives her a chance to complete the hat-trick. GIRL TALK (4) is a Central Districts visitor who has been in great form this season, and will be backing up quickly from a game last start effort for third at Trentham a week ago. Stick with her. BETHANY DEE (11) is a promising mare who has held her form since winning her maiden second up by a head at Te Aroha. Her stable is running hot, and she has top 4 claims again. YOUNG JACKSON (7) showed his true ability second up with an easy maiden win here. He has the scope to go with it.
