RIPICOLA (11) did a fair job on debut last time out, finishing 1.75 lengths from the winner in third over 1200m at Phar Lap Racecourse. Trial winner prior. Drawn to salute in this field. FUN TEST (8) broke through for her Maiden win over 1400m at Reefton last time, scoring comfortably. Won well fresh up. The extra 2kg is not an issue. Also in R2. Obvious threat. DAYZEE DIOR (7) was a good run at last start. Awkward draw. Place and first four chance. GIUSSEPE FERRANTE (6) stepped out on his debut over 1200m at Phar Lap Racecourse two weeks ago and finished ninth. Better run than it seems on debut. Plenty of scope for improvement. Ace barrier draw here. HANGINBYATHREAD (1) was a sound third fresh up for a new yard. Obvious improver. Include here.
