MINNIE LU (2) is a handy type who was well below best latest at this track, finishing fifth (31.12) in a R/A H. Normally safe to begin but shuffled back last time off the low draw. Better than last start and worth following up. VALDERRAMA (3) goes very well this trip, starting 18 times for six wins and eight minors. Below best last time at this track (30.80) in a R/A H, finishing a 6 length sixth. Looks like one of the chances. BIG TIME POPPY (7) has some solid form under her belt and proved too strong last time to win by 1.5 lengths at Manawatu in a handy 26.30, beating SPACE TRON. Shapes as a top winning chance on the latest effort. BIG TIME SUPER (1) has a good box draw and must be included in calculations.
