LADY IRIS (10) did a good job last start to finish second in the LR Star Way 1000 at Ellerslie over 1200m, beaten a head. That run should have her rock-hard fit now. Extra trip a plus; hard to beat. MAZINO (12) was in the money on debut before finishing fourth last time, beaten 2 lengths over 1200m in the LR Star Way 1000 at Ellerslie. Has upside and expected to go well. WYNDSTORM (1) was a determined maiden winner last time out, scoring by a neck over 1200m at Ellerslie. Sparingly raced and has more to offer. Breaks from a wide alley but he is one of the main chances. CASHLA BAY (11) accounted for a maiden field over 1400m at Matamata last start, finishing a head ahead of the nearest rival. Sparingly raced and has more to offer. Harder this time but still one to consider.
