TISSE (4) has found some good form at the right time on a heavy track and would not mind a firmer surface here. He will be having his first start in a clockwise direction, but is still good enough to take this out. MOONLIGHT MAGIC (7) missed the start badly fresh up, and then was held up when trying to run on fresh up here 6 weeks ago. She has been back to the trials since then, and is worth another chance. MALDINI (9) ran on late over a mile at Otaki just over 3 weeks ago. The step up in trip will suit him third up from a spell, and he is ready to put his best hoof forward here. I PARK (14) has raced his way into form as he steps up in ground. This field is tougher than his last start, but he drops 5kg, and would not be a shock winner. SANTA CATALINA (12) lifted strongly late to score over 2400m in BM65 company here 4 weeks ago. She has 2kg less to carry this time, and can measure up in this grade as well. Stick with her.
