Verdict

WORDS OF MINE (5) showed talent as a 3-year-old and will be resuming from a spell as a much stronger mare. This trip is well short of her best, but she has not been seen publicly and can get away with a sharp sprint fresh up. If she is not too far off them turning for home, she can have the last say. ELEGANT EXPLOSIVE (9) is a stablemate of the top pick who raced a touch too keenly in front on a heavy track at Riccarton nearly a fortnight ago. Her overall form has been disappointing this season, but this race offers her a great chance to get back on track. Stick with her. GAME DUKE (8) made up a lot of ground when finishing third at Ashburton 4 weeks ago. He needs a genuine tempo, and if the race is run to suit him, then he can run into the money again. TOMMY SHELBY (1) dropped in class and struck a track that was too heavy for him at Riccarton last time out. He is worth another chance in this. TOUGH TIME (2) will be peaking third up, and should be ready to show some form. Include.
