BUMRAH'S GANGULY (7) found some support last start but struggled into fifth (22.08), beaten 3.5 lengths. Was in the money the start prior. Form from his last run is proving to be solid. Looks the one to beat on his best form. OPAWA MUDGEE (3) was midfield throughout and finished there last time when 4th (18.28) at Wanganui. Should be about the mark. OLD PAL (4) boasts a strong record this journey here with three wins and two minors from nine tries. Missed the frame latest (27.44) when fifth over 457m at this track in a Class 1/2. Can feature with the right run. BET REJECTED (2) drops in journey and is not to be underestimated, especially from a good draw.

Goes well at this track and trip. Latest effort finished last in a Class 1/2 on March 25 over 457m at this track behind Talkin' Trash beaten 14 lengths (27.02). Can bounce back. One of the main chances.

Could only manage seventh last time but the start prior hit the frame when second (21.80) over 375m at this track. Boxed awkwardly but in the mix on her best form.

Found some support last start but struggled and finished 5th in a Class 1 on April 8 over 375m at this track behind Ludlow Lad beaten 3.5 lengths (22.08). Placed two back at this track. Goes very well from this draw including five wins. Leading player.

Surprised two starts back at Wanganui Straight to win by a head in 17.82, beating Cliff Top Trixie. Last start finished last in a Class 1 on April 14 over 313m at Wanganui Straight behind Big Time Toby beaten 11 lengths (18.35). Not keen, needs to lift.
