Verdict

DAVID MOSS (5) went huge on both days of the recent Winter Cup carnival at Riccarton, including his last start there when finishing third, in a race he could have won with a tad more luck, He has won here in the past, and would be a well deserved winner of this. SHAMEL EXPRESS (1) has been racing consistently since shifting to the South Island and racing from the beach stable of Amber Hoffman, and with the right run, he should go close to taking this out. ROCKMAN (2) is backing up 6-days after finishing sixth as the favourite at Riccarton over 7f. He will be a lot sharper now, and can make amends. Follow your money. PRETTY FLY (4) won his penultimate start here before finishing out of the money at Riccarton over 1 ?m when nearly 6 weeks between runs. She can bounce straight back into the money here. WILD JAKKAL (9) ran the race of an improver at Oamaru 3 weeks ago over 1 ?m, and a drop back to 1m should do him no harm. Stick with him for all combos.
