SHAMELIA KIRK (9) has been an easy winner of her 2 public trials, and has been to the fore at the jump-outs on her home track at New Plymouth. She has a good gate, hails from a top stable, and she will be ready to rumble on debut. RISE TO POWER (2) has a bit of breeding about him, and he will make his debut from the powerful Walker/Bergerson stable with plenty of trial experience behind him. A good draw will ensure plenty of market support, and he will be hard to hold out. SAX APPEAL (5) just battled last start in a decent field at Otaki, and was over a month between runs on that day. With less space between starts this time, she is worth another chance. HIGH ROCK (1) has won the latest of his 2 public trials, and he is bred to relish wet ground. Let the market be your best guide. SUMMER FLYER (10) won her only trial under her own steam, and with some luck from a wide gate, she can figure in the top 4.
