LANTERN WAY (2) is yet to find the frame in two runs since resuming from a spell, the latest when fourth over 1400m at Trentham. Cherry-ripe now and is the one they have to beat. BELLADONNA LILY (9) settled well back last start and never threatened when 5 lengths from the winner in ninth over 1600m at Trentham. Faces an easier assignment so she is sure to be prominent. FINEST HOUR (10) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1350m at Wanganui, beaten 3.5 lengths into sixth. Ideally placed and is sure to take plenty of stopping. METAVERSE (5) ran fifth at her latest appearance over 1400m at Trentham, finishing 2.25 lengths from the winner. Worth plenty of thought.
