GIRL TALK (7) has handled each step up in class in her last 3 starts, winning them all, including her toughest assignment yet here 2 weeks ago. She cops another wide gate, but is perfectly placed with 2kg less to carry, and she can win again. UNCLE ARCH (3) will be chasing a hat-trick of wins after winning at this level 3 weeks ago at Whanganui off a wide gate. He has a superior gate this time, and the weight rise may not be enough to stop him from getting the job done again. WINGMAN (2) worked hard and kept on fighting gamely when finishing third at Otaki nearly 3 weeks ago. He tries a mile for the first time, and another honest effort is on the cards. TINY DIAMOND (11) impressed when winning at New Plymouth in his penultimate start before finishing runner-up there 16 days ago. He needs a strong tempo, and with a run to suit, he is always an each-way chance. COULTHARD (4) did well off a wide gate when finishing third at Whanganui 3 weeks ago. He has a better gate here, so go again.
