DUSTY ROAD (1) finished fourth over 1400m at Te Rapa when resuming last start, beaten only a long neck. Steps up a level but he is fitter and worth serious consideration. WHISKEY 'N ROSES (8) finished third last time over 1200m in the G3 Cambridge Breeders Stakes at Te Rapa, 1.3 from the winner. Has placed at this longer journey and rates among the leading chances. GRANDE GALLO (7) finished 2 lengths away from the winner in third last start at this track over 1200m Has a very good record over today's journey with two wins from four starts. Should be involved in the finish. PERICLES (6) was out of the money two runs back when fresh from a spell then again missed the frame last start over 1400m at Te Rapa, beaten 2.25 lengths into eighth. Worth noting Vinnie Colgan goes aboard. Finds a nice race and can atone.
