Verdict

EXPLOSIVE IMPACT (8) got back off a wide draw at Hawera 2 weeks ago and really hit the line hard, finishing sixth. She gets a big swing in her gate this time, and she will relish the extra 1f. If she is not already looking for more ground, then she can have the last say in this. TROUBLE MAKER (9) was an impressive maiden winner at Matamata in her penultimate start, and then made up a lot of ground to finish seventh here 3 weeks ago. She can figure in the top 3 again here. ZENITH (4) finished close up in fifth as the favourite at Arawa Park last start over 7f, and he can finish even closer over this more suitable trip of 1m. Follow your money. EVER CHARM (1) may not win often, but he is usually very consistent at this level. He is likely to settle back, so watch for him late again. Each way. GO JOANNA (14) whacked away fairly well for eighth at Avondale 10 days ago, and she is worth including in all top 4 combos in this sort of field.
