OHOPE WINS (1) Rocketed home when winning last time at Te Rapa and will find this grade more suitable. Maintaining a perfect record the last 2 runs and good career start. Expect to go close. SINGLE RED (3) Looked good when 2nd last time at Te Rapa and will appreciate the drop in grade. Should jump out and bowl along. Has a positive stall. Looks promising in this race. TAJANA (2) Rattled home nicely into 3rd beaten by 1L last run at Te Rapa and stepping down to a lower level. Going well this preparation. Proven performer on a soft track. Should be competitive in this race at a bit of odds. ARIADNE (6) Hit the line well when 2nd beaten by 1L last start at Trentham and taking on easier opposition. In a purple patch of form since resuming from a spell. Will be around the mark at odds.
