Wingatui Picks

Looks a stand-out trifecta with top three picks. DARKHAN ROAR has two placings from eight runs this prep and finished in the middle of the pack last start at Oamaru, a close top selection. YUNGBLUD couldn't hold on and just missed last start at Riccarton Park Synthetic, consider. CLYDE BARROW finished a neck back from the leader last start at Riccarton Park Synthetic and drawn the rails, hard to hold out. PERSONA won't be far away in the run, in with a chance.

DE RUSSIAN ROCKET drawn ideally, key chance. PETE'S PRIDE narrowly beaten at long odds last start at Oamaru when resuming and placed at Ashburton in only second-up attempt, dangerous. TE KANAWA in the money last start running second at Oamaru, still in this. PEACHY KEEN finished fourth last start at Oamaru and placed once this prep at nan, place only.

ANTICIPATE let-up for seven weeks. Has won at Wingatui and placed once this prep, hard to go past. LOFTYS GIFT relishes the heavy, winning four in these conditions before and likely to race on the speed in a race with minimal pressure expected, don't treat lightly. ALBATROSS draws to do no work, looks threatening. PAR TEE let-up. Comes to hand quickly and placed at Gore when last first-up, could upset.

BALZANO won't be far away in the run, leading hope. WHERE'S WALLY placed in two of three at Wingatui before and has two placings from seven runs this prep, dangerous. SACRED DREAM first-up after 18 week break and won't be far away in the run, in with a chance. TOWN BELT narrowly beaten at long odds last start at Oamaru and has five placings from 10 runs this prep, needs the breaks.

Hard to split the top two selections. BOWLER resumes after a 31 week spell and rates highly with Corey Campbell retaining the ride, among the main chances. LADY BANKSIDE first-up after 30 week break, expect to be right up there. LA CERVEZA a winner at first outing this prep and rates highly with Ashvin Goindasamy aboard, each-way claims. LIPA MALA chased well to fall just short last start at Oamaru and placed twice at Wingatui but been unable to get a win, capable of getting into the money.

MY GIRL CANDY let-up and has placed in two attempts this campaign, commands respect. AMIINIT back after 24 week break and generally strong first-up placing at Ashburton last attempt, not without each-way claims. HIGH STEP came on to finish midfield last start at Oamaru and should run fitter for past attempts, place chance. STOLEN MAGIC back from seven week let-up and unsighted last start at Oamaru when fresh, quinella.

Plenty of these on debut MISSONI resumes after a spell of 19 weeks, key chance. ICE COLD GOLD narrowly beaten at long odds last start at Riccarton Park and up in trip, don't treat lightly. NAVAL COMMAND first start, not the worst. TEE JAY first starter, capable of getting into the money.

VINO VALENTINO drawn perfectly, commands respect. CEE ARE EL placed last start at long odds at Riccarton Park and has three placings from eight runs this prep, not without each-way claims. CASTLEBRAE strong in winning last start to break maiden at Oamaru, cannot be ruled out. BELLA ROSE only just missed in driving finish last start at Riccarton Park and should run fitter for past attempts, could upset.
