COUNTRY SALON (2) never got warm in the G2 Waikato Guineas at Te Rapa 2 weeks ago, and his tough fresh-up win at Whanganui before that is the better guide to use. He has a slightly better draw, and in this more suitable class, he can bounce straight back into the winner's circle. FREEBELLE (1) has been thereabouts in all of her starts this prep, but just hasn't been able to race up to the form that she showed earlier last year. She steps back up to a middle distance and gets her chance to run into the top 3 this time. LADY'S SECRET (8) caught the eye with a late finish at Trentham 3 weeks ago, and she will be peaking for her third run from the Andrew Campbell stable. If she is in touch when they turn for home, she can have the last say. PRINCESS ELLY (4) ran on powerfully late when finishing third at Tauherenikau 15 days ago in a decent field. She will find this easier, and she is well worth including in all combinations. PLATINUM GODDESS (7) gets a decent gate and is right in this.
