TRANSONIC (3) scored on debut at Ashburton Raceway two runs ago before having his colours lowered when finishing 11th of 12 at his latest appearance over 1980m at Addington, beaten 22 metres as the favourite. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. This is a nice drop in grade so he is in the right race to return to winning form. BABE ON THE BEACH (1) has been racing very well of late and went close last time over 2200m at Wingatui, finishing third and 7 metres from the winner. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Leading hope based on that latest outing. MAGNETIC JIM D (9) last appeared when he scored at long odds by 0.8 metres over 2400m at this track nine months ago. Should be thereabouts. BLAZE LIGHTENING (6) is in the mix following a sixth at his most recent appearance over 2200m at Wingatui.
