Verdict

DONNA'S CRUNCH (5) finished second last time out, beaten 6 metres, in a far better performance at Oamaru over 1 ¼m. Must raise the bar but a win is not out of the question. DONS DELIGHT (7) did a good job to finish third two starts ago then recorded a commanding win last time out, scoring by 6 metres over 1 ½m at Kaikoura. Interesting to see what unfolds from this wide draw. Stepping up a level this time but he is capable of another big performance. RELAPSED (1) is the next elect off a last-start win by 2.25 metres at Addington over 1 ³/16m. Worth an each-way ticket. HINEMOANA (4) is the best of the rest after finishing runner-up over 1 ?m at Addington last time out.
