DON PAULY (1) got a mile out of his ground here 11 days ago, and ran on powerfully late wide out to finish fourth. He slides down in class and is the one to beat this time. AISHITERU (18) battled on bravely over a mile when making her debut at Tauherenikau nearly 5 weeks ago. She steps straight up to a middle distance for her second start, which is a good sign from her stable, and despite copping a wide gate, she can figure in the top 4 again. TAIMATE STAAR (16) had to work too hard to find a prominent spot here last time out, and she failed to finish her run off. She has a superior gate this time and will be ridden more quietly here, so tick with her. Each way value. PRIVATE TREATY (14) is still a maiden, but BM60 grade racing is not much harder, and he recent form is good enough for her to be an each-way threat again. MOUNTAIN OF LIGHT (3) just peaked on his run late when resuming from a spell here 3 weeks ago. He strips fitter and won't be far away. Each way.
