AGERA (4) stuck on bravely when finishing sixth as a loose favourite at Ellerslie 8 days ago. He had to lump 62kg that day and didn't flinch in the run to the line. He drops 8kg here and can bounce straight back into the money. GIGI (5) was less than a length from the winner when finishing fourth as favourite here just over 3 weeks ago. He won here over a mile before that and drops back to that trip here. He is still on the up with his fitness and can take this out. Follow your money. SHARP 'N' SMART (2) is again on target for the first Tuesday in November in Melbourne, so he would want to start to show some good form again. He strips fitter second up and can't be risked. AFTERMATH (8) will be peaking third up from a spell and only peaked on his effort late at Te Aroha a fortnight ago when finishing fourth. Stick with him on an each-way basis. LADIES MAN (1) is a former G1 winner racing his way into full fitness. He benefits from a 4kg claim, and can figure in the top 3 here.
