Verdict

BETTY WILLDOIT (8) has found the right race after some solid efforts to start her career, and this lightly tried 7YO mare can open her winning account in this. On top for us. JUST TED (2) has only had 3 starts, and he whacked away well enough at Hawera last time out, and before that was running on late for third at Woodville. Stick with him on an each-way basis. HILL BILLY (4) will be at is peak fitness fourth up from a spell, and such is the evenness of this field, that he should be considered a top 3 chance this time. TELEOST (6) makes his debut off the back of a recent Foxton trial win, and he does not have to be a start to make a winning debut. Keep him very safe.
