JUSTIN CASE (1) beat a couple of 4-horse fields as a juvenile, and then was a brave fourth in the G1 Sistema Stakes at Ellerslie prior to having a well-earned spell. A recent trial will have him ready to rumble fresh up. KING OF THE AIR (2) ran on too late over 970m at Cambridge just over 2 weeks ago, and he would have taken a lot of improvement out of that performance. A wide gate can make is tricky early on, but he has the scope to play a part in the finish here at good value. SHAMBO JACK (6) motored home late when finishing third fresh up at Te Rapa 3 weeks ago. He has plenty of talent, and is an each-way hope from a superior gate here. PHILLYJEAN (9) resumed with a big run at Listed level at Taupo nearly 4 weeks ago, and surely her first win is not far away. Stick with her. STATE OF VALOUR (5) strips fitter second up, and is worth including.
