MIAMI TAN (2) jumped from this box last time and also the same course and distance to score a SPECA win (19.10). When she picks the jump she is very hard to beat in this class. Has the ability and expected to go close again. OPAWA RYAN (6) was strongly supported last start but missed the frame when sixth (19.50), beaten 5.5 lengths. Much better than last start and shapes as one to consider. DYNAMIC KIWI (4) showed little early speed at her last couple, the latest finishing seventh (18.10) in a Class 1/2 at Wanganui. Has a good record at this journey. Will appreciate a return to this venue and is new to the veteran grade. Should be about the mark. HUNTER HONEY (7) puts herself in the race early and did place last time from this box - worth considering.

Missed the frame last time but finished in the minors two back when third (19.17) over 318m at this track. Is a danger.

Missed the frame last time but was in the minors two on end prior to that, the most recent when third (19.17) at big odds over 318m at this track. Others make more appeal.

Found some support last start but struggled and finished 6th over 318m at this track beaten 5.5 lengths (19.50) behind Miami Tan in a SPECA on March 15. Placed two back at this track. Capable of improvement on latest effort. Leading chance.
