VEE VEE (2) has been kept fresh since finishing fifth over 1600m at Wanganui six weeks ago. Was a determined winner two runs back. Will be handy despite the tricky draw. Best figures should see him run well. JACK MORRISON (1) is progressing well this preparation. Opened with a sixth at Trentham two starts back then got the job done by 4 lengths as public elect last time out after being in the firing line on the bend over 1700m at this track. Finds a suitable race and can make it back-to-back wins. LOVE JANIE (7) was below her best last time, finishing sixth and beaten 7 lengths over 1600m at Hawera. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. LURCH (6) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1400m at Hawera, beaten 8 lengths. Fitter this time will prove harder to beat.
