RAAJOICES (3) finished third when resuming from a spell last start over 1600m at Matamata. Has a sound record here with three wins from five starts. This looks an ideal assignment. HEZA SHARP ONE (5) was comfortably accounted for when ninth last time out over 1600m at Te Rapa, beaten 3.5 lengths after being prominent at the turn. That followed a win at Tauranga at the previous outing. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot make amends. DICTATION (6) returned from a spell two-and-a-half weeks ago when he was in contention on the bend before being beaten 3.5 lengths into fourth over 2100m at Waverley. Meets a stronger field but he is fitter and up to the task. VISTOWN (8) finished third at Te Rapa two runs back but didn't measure up last time over 2100m at Te Rapa, finishing 4 lengths back in seventh. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time.
