Tony’s shortlist
Fat Tony’s AI picks
6. She's A Filly
Fresh legs, light weight and honest staying form—Fat Tony says she can boss this bog.
2. Valstar
Last-start third on heavy ground was proper form; dangerous if he gets cover from the wide draw.
1. Fast Impact
Forget the latest flop, pal—his earlier heavy-track fourth reads well and the market respects him.
5. Dream Romance
Inside gate and Moseley back aboard; she has shown enough wet-track talent to bounce into the money.
3. Loose Knickers
Tough old battler with a strong jockey and prior Wingatui heavy placing—include him in the exotics.

Race context
Race preview
FAST IMPACT (1) seemed to really struggle in the bad ground at Oamaru last start, and we put that effort down to the second-up theory. She was well in the market that day, and she is worth another chance. On top. VALSTAR (2) fought on gamely for third when producing his best effort to date at Oamaru. He would not have to improve by much to be the winner here. LOOSE KNICKERS (3) will find this easier than his last start at Riccarton 9 days ago, and we think he can figure in the top 3 this time. SHE'S A FILLY (6) resumes from a spell that would have done her the world of good, and she can't be taken lightly. DANIELLISH (7) still has some strengthening up to do, but a win here is well within her reach.
