LINKIN PARK (2) has shown a lot of heart in his last couple of starts with a brace of second-place finishes to his credit, including a particularly tough run 5 days ago at Tauranga when racing keenly in front. If he can settle a touch better, then he will take them all the way here. SNEAKY CYCLONE (10) has improved in each of his runs to date and will have no fitness excuses third up from a spell. Craig Grylls sticks with him, and so do we. TRIPLE THREAT (9) set the pace on debut at Matamata nearly 3 weeks ago, and after giving a good kick on the turn, he weakened late to finish fourth. He has a tough draw, but with some natural improvement, he can figure in the top 3 this time. MANORBIER (3) found 1150m at Te Aroha too short for him just over a fortnight ago, and was safely held. The extra 250m is the key here, and he can bounce straight back into the money. FRENCH THINKER (13) resumes from a spell with a recent Ellerslie trial win under her belt. Let the market be your best guide.

    Recent form sound. At the latest run set the pace for much of the race 2nd of 13 at Tauranga on November 1 over 1400m, on a slow track; head behind Happy Venture carrying 58.5kg at $12.80. The start before that rolled along in front then was edged out late 2nd of 11 at Te Aroha on October 22 over 1400m, slow going long-neck behind What A Yarn carrying 54kg at $15.10. Strong effort last time and looks a leading hope.
