Verdict

SABATINI (10) was given plenty of time to mature but was worth waiting for when making a winning debut at Ellerslie 16 days ago over 6f. She is second up on her home track, and despite her wide gate, she can take the next step immediately. PRESENCE OF MIND (11) will give her stable a strong hand in this race after winning her maiden at Tauherenikau 10 days ago. She is untried on a heavy track, but she has the breeding to suggest she should go on with the job. CARSOLIO (1) finished runner-up last time out on the same day as her stablemate and second pick at Tauherenikau last start. His only win came on a heavy track, and he is overdue for his next win. Stick with him. YOUSITO (12) ran a bold race for second fresh up before weakening quickly in a stronger field at Ellerslie just over 3 weeks ago. Dropping back ½f will suit her, and she can bounce straight back into the top 3 here. ELUSIVE FAITH (9) won fresh up at Arawa Park 3 weeks ago, and she has more to offer. Each-way.
