AVATAR SPEED (5) had been flying but missed the placings last time when fourth (26.26) over 457m at this track. Has a good record here at this journey. Was very well supported last start and didn't get any luck in the running. With a safe beginning should be very hard to beat. BIG TIME ASHTON (2) stalked the lead and fought on well to finish 2 lengths away in second (25.81) at this track in a Class 2 over 457m. Although beaten ran one of the quickest times on the card last start. Likes to jump and run and expecting another good run. BEAM (4) had been in great form but missed the frame latest when seventh (31.24) in a Class 2/3 at Addington. Generally a safe beginner but never in it last time. Has ability and can measure up. SAVE TIME (7) should bounce back after an unplaced effort here recently. Has very good box manners.

Hit the frame at this track last time when a 2 length second but did record an enormous 25.81 over the 457m journey. Looks a key chance.

Missed the frame last start when seventh but had been in strong form prior to that, winning two on end before placing two back. One of the main chances.

Won two starts back when well in the market at Wanganui over 520m. Last start finished 4th in a Class 3 on March 27 over 457m at this track behind Big Time Gunnar beaten 5 lengths (26.26). Has an outstanding 25.7 best time at this course and distance. Looks hard to beat this time.

Backs up after winning by 1.2 lengths at this track (25.77) beating More Airflow in a Class 1 on March 27 six days ago. Significant rise in class and prepared to overlook.

Missed the frame latest (26.38) when sixth over 457m at this track in a Class 3. Has never missed the frame from three starts from the draw, including a win. Can measure up on best.

Going very well with wins at her last two. Scored most recently over 457m at this track in Class 2 class six days ago. Tougher assignment here and will need some luck.
