AKATEA (9) made it three wins in a row last time out, getting home by 3.5 metres over 1980m at this track. Must overcome a very wide draw. This looks a sterner test than last time but she is capable of another big performance. MIKI KNOWS (4) has been racing well, filling a top-five position at his last five starts including a third most recently at this track over 2600m. Recent efforts are good enough to take out a race like this. TRUMP CARD (2) has to come into calculations on the back of some strong recent form, most recently when fifth at this track over 1980m. Must be included. SPIRIT OF ANARCHY (7) has placed in both of his last two starts, including last time out over 1980m at this track after trailing the leader for most of the trip. Strong place chance again.
