Verdict

EMMA TWIGG (5) won her debut on soft ground, and then put in a further 3 good efforts on test heavy tracks prior to having a well-earned spell. She will appreciate getting back on some firmer surfaces, and with a tune-up trial under her belt, she should go close to taking this out. PLACES TO BE (2) was put aside after just the one run for fourth at Ellerslie in late April. She was good enough to finish fourth in G3 company there earlier in the year, and despite no public trials, she will be ready to rumble fresh. BELLE DU MONDE (4) was above herself in condition when finishing a solid fourth fresh up at Taupo a month ago. She will be tighter now, and should be fighting out the finish this time. TRACK TESTER (1) showed talent last season, and resumes for a new stable. The quieter surroundings can help, and being a year older, he will be that much stronger. Follow any market leads. MAYFAIR STREET (6) won by a nose on debut as a juvenile, and then missed in Listed grade. Watch fresh.
