ROSSO (3) is a very progressive South Island-trained gelding who was an impressive winner last time out, cruising home by more than 5 lengths over 2600m at Riccarton as the favourite 3 weeks ago. Dropping back from 2600m to 2100m won't bother him, and despite the weight rise, he is the one to beat again. SINHAMAN (6) improved sharply last start, finishing a close third over 1600m at Pukekohe after missing the placings the run before. He will be at his peak fitness for his first run this prep over a middle distance, and he will go close to taking this out. BILLY BLINX (7) stormed home from well back to score over 1600m at Pukekohe a fortnight ago. He will relish the extra 500m, so stick with him. PLATINUM TYCHE (16) has grown an extra leg this prep, and also comes off a win at Whanganui, making it two from four this season. She has a big finish, and the hat-trick beckons. CRACKERCOL (11) has been holding her good form for a while, and she is another with top 4 claims.
