THE ENTERTAINER (1) fought hard all the way to the line when resuming at Riccarton nearly 4 weeks ago, finishing less than a length from the winner in third place. She revels in the wet and will relish the step up to a mile. On top. EIGHT PENCE (6) likes to race on the speed, which can be an advantage around this track, and with the aid of a 2kg claim, he is nicely placed to take them all the way. CHAPINTEEL (7) needed her first run back from a spell, and she normally improves quickly with racing. She slides down in class and has won on this track in the past. Each way claims. AIRPARK HUSTLER (5) tackled some tough fields at Trentham in his last couple of starts, and had no chance there nearly 3 weeks ago when getting too far back in the running. He is better suited to this field and can figure in the top 3 here. LITTLE BUT FIERCE (8) has been racing well and will try a mile for the first time this prep. Include in all top 4 combos.
