KING'S ENGLISH (2) was beaten twice as the favourite at Taupo when starting his career, and since then, he has won his last couple of starts on the bounce. He lifted late to beat a good type here 13 days ago, and with Opie Bosson picking up the ride, he can repeat the dose. TO BRAVERY BORN (1) will give the Walker/Bergerson stable a strong hand in this race, and he was too tough when winning fresh up in a good field at Te Rapa 6 weeks ago. He has had a quiet trial since then, and he will give the top pick plenty to think about in this. LUBECK (11) hit the line stoutly when finishing third behind the top pick in the same race last time out. She handles wet ground, and with those sorts of conditions expected, she should be right in the top 3 again. DROPS OF GOD (10) has led all the way to her first 2 starts, and though this is tougher, and she cops a wide gate, she is still worth including. IN HASTE (8) has made plenty of progress already. She is fresh up, drawn well, and can win this.
