Verdict

TURN N BURN (3) resumes after finishing fourth at her latest appearance at this track on January 15. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Meeting a deeper field this time but she good enough to play a major role. KING'S COMMAND (9) finished third at Addington over 1 ³/16m last time out, failing to live up to his warm favouritism. Drawn to enjoy a nice run, with luck possibly playing a role at some point. Good enough to take out a race like this. TRENDY'S STAR (8) was beaten 500 metres on debut last start over 1 ?m at this track. Capable of a lot more this time around. RAKATURBO (2) must be included on the back of some solid recent form, most recently when fourth at Central Southland Raceway over 1 ½m.
