SPENCER (1) bounced back to his best form and got the job done by nearly a length last time out over 1340m at Whanganui 2 weeks ago. He has a solid record here, winning 3 of 5 starts. Hard to beat, especially on a wet track. MYSTIC PARK (2) came from well back to snatch victory by a head over 1600m in the G3 TAB Mile at Riccarton. He is very versatile and will have the services of Opie Bosson here. Stick with him. THE SCUNNER (5) raced on the pace and fought hard to finish second over 1600m in the G3 Thompson Handicap at this track nearly 6 weeks ago. He will have plenty of time to find a spot close to the fence from his wide gate here, and another honest effort can be expected. KITTY FLASH (12) was a game runner-up by a short-head at Tauranga over 1200m 3 weeks ago, and reunites with Craig Grylls, who's won twice on her. She is nicely placed with a light weight, so stick with her. FRANK THE TANK (11) finished strongly for second at Waverley and should be hitting the line hard again.
