KOHEROA (1) wound up strongly last time out to finish 1.3 lengths adrift in second over 1200m at Te Rapa when fresh from a spell. Drawn to enjoy a nice trail just off the pace. Won his Maiden clockwise. Top tier chance here for sure. SLIPPER ISLAND (5) he handles dry and wet footing. Hard to see out of the finish in this. Quinella and trifecta chance in this line up. MISS ROCKETTE (8) runs in the same grade here as last start and up 1.5kg. Clockwise the main issue. BERENHARD (3) was not too bad at all here last start. Drawn out again. Trifecta and first four chance. MARKET PLACE (9) was a better run at last start. Riding change. Awkward draw.
