Verdict

DASHING (2) showed talent as a juvenile and has since changed stables. His trial form since relocating to this track for Johno Benner has been good, and despite copping a wide gate, he will be hard to hold out. HELLO MY DEAR (7) is another who showed promise as a juvenile, and she resumed with a solid enough effort for third at Trentham 12 days ago. She steps straight up from 5f to 7f, and has a positive jockey change with Bruno Queiroz stepping into the irons. Hard to beat. DUJARDIN (10) tackled some good fields as a juvenile and will be a lot stronger this season. She has had 4 trials already this season, and will be ready to rumble fresh up, especially from a good draw. IFFIGIVE (9) is heading the right way with her form, and was runner-up at Woodville by a nose in her latest start there nearly 8 weeks ago. She has won a trial since then and can take this out. PRIOVITA (1) just battled on debut at New Plymouth on a heavy track. Expect something better here. UNDER ORDERS (8)
