LUCKY DICE (3) finally put it all together when running up along the fence to score comfortably at Woodville just over 3 weeks ago. That field was not too bad, and he can now go right on with the job. FAIR GAME (2) won his maiden as expected in his penultimate start, and then was beaten off a wide draw at Otaki last week. He can settle a couple of pairs closer this time from a superior gate, and he is expected to bounce straight back into the money. MIDNIGHT TRAIN (1) has not missed a cheque in his past 5 starts, and was runner-up in the Wellington Guineas 2 starts back. That sort of form makes him very hard to hold out at this level. SKATTEBO (4) set the pace and was too strong at Whanganui over 1360m. He will relish the extra 240m, and from the pole position, he should again take some pegging back. CAPACI (5) failed to fire as the favourite last time out, and no excuse was found. A wet track could be the key, and she can make amends. IKAN (6) has rough claims in a small field.
