Tony’s shortlist
Fat Tony’s AI picks
4. Litteral
Drawn the paint, loves it bottomless and gets her chance to atone—follow the money, punters.
5. Santita
Light weight, alley two and proven heavy-track grit; Tony says she’s the danger.
1. The Cool One
Course-and-distance heavy winner; forgive the fresh run, but 59kg keeps it interesting.
7. Tears Of Victory
Recent heavy-track placings stack up nicely—Moody can park her handy and nick a cheque.
3. Hollyhockaroo
Fresh winner with upside and a feather claim, but the long break makes her a cautious inclusion.

Race preview
LITTERAL (4) struggled to see out 1400m last time out at Riccarton, and it is best to ignore that effort. She has been near enough since relocating to the South Island, and from the pole position, she should be the one to beat. HOLLYHOCKAROO (3) won fresh up in the South Island at Timaru nearly a year ago, and resumes for a new local stable. She is only lightly tried, and with further time to mature, she can continue to make her way through the grades now. THE COOL ONE (1) was well beaten fresh up when finishing fourth at Oamaru 3 weeks ago, and his only win came here nearly a year ago. Hard to beat in this. TEARS OF VICTORY (7) battled away for seventh on the poly at Riccarton a month ago, and she can bounce straight back into the money at her first start on this course. Include. SANTITA (5) makes her South Island debut, and was last seen at Ruakaka nearly 7 weeks ago. She has talent, and any market confidence is worth following.
