Has formidable record this summer, wins including Dunedin Gold Cup. M. Thornley 2 3539 REGAL RATION (15) 53 (8 g Bourbon Prince—Ration Time: D. and L. Thistoll, Riccarton). A winner and minor place-getter on his West Coast campaign earlier in summer. Latest failure was at Riccarton. G. Lee 3 2751 AUDACITER (17) 54.5 (7 g Mellay—Svelte; K. Quayle, Riccarton). Easy all-the-way winner at Reefton on Wednesday. Should be hard to beat again. I. Grant 4 9679 WINDVALE (7) 50.5 (5 g Mellay—Graewyn; C. Stewart, Washdyke). Form has been patchy, but will rate a chance if ground is soft or heavy. 5 4975 BUN TUCK (14) 50 (8 g Quetzal—Vital; A. and P. Williams, Riccarton). Won this race last year but has little to commend him on form this time. 6 5940 BUTCH (1) 50 (5 g Mellay—Debbie Marie; J. Lalor, Ashburton). Latest runs over middle distance do not invite confidence. 7 6172 SENATOR KENNEDY (10) 50 (5 h Senator Jack— Totara Lass; W. Kennedy, ikamatua). Recent form has been as a sprinter. Latest placing was over 1400 at Riccarton. Respected. M. Mein 8 2447 BEV LEIGH (12) 49 (8 m Eastern Nip—Lorna Leigh; B. Finlayson, Riccarton). Won at Hokitika and was also placed on her West Coast campaign earlier in summer. Failed at Invercargill last Saturday. B. Hibberd 9 0045 BUZZIN ALONG (8) 49 (5 g Bellborough—Vanita; R.

Weak ran at Reefton on Wednesday. 12 0390 SAILING IN (4) 49 (8 g Massowa—Lady Juriste; C. Lang, Rangiora). Hard to fancy on form. 13 7248 RIBEIRO (16) 48.5 (7 g Ribotlight—Vivien Robe; J. Lalor, Ashburton). Nothing to commend him on his run at Reefton. 14 6754 GREEK PRINCE (9) 48 (5 h Greek God—Silver Princess; T. Lalor, Omoto). Fair fourth at Reefton on Wednesday. 15 2177 MR RICHMOND (3) 48 <4 h Greek God—Gone Astray; J. Healey, Richmond). Should be tested by this class. M. McPhie 16 8022 ROBANNA (13) 48 (4 m Mellay—Vivien Robe; J. Lalor, Ashburton). Battling second but well beaten by Audaciter at Reefton. 17 2153 ROUGE D'OR (6) 48 (6 g Rapanni—Bantry; R.

This distance more to his liking. M. Mein 2 4123 KOWHAI GLEN (2) 55 (4 g Greek God—Kowhai Princess; T. Lalor, Omoto). Strong finisher for third at Reefton. Chance if he can stay in touch with pace. I. Gram 3 7861 STRAD (17) 57.5 (9 g Jekyll—First Fiddle; M. Jones, Washdyke). Came out of a lean patch with win over 1400 m at Reefton. M. McPhie 4 4236 EROS (8) 54.5 (6 g Greek God—llluminate; M. Jones, Washdyke). Showed nothing at Reefton, but earlier runs were useful. Respected. 5 8043 JIPCHO (11) 54 (3 g Sovereign Prince—Jay Em; I. Thomas, owner, Riccarton).

Looked pretty useful hi two-year-old programme last season, and capable of smart fresh run at this distance. G. Lee 10 42 MY GAME (10) 53.5 (10 g Ribotlight—Glorious Twelfth; J. Lalor, Ashburton). Game run for second to Strad over 1400 m at Reefton. One of obvious place chances. 11 0980 REVELLS ROAD (3) 53.5 (7 h Sedgewick—Tablecloth; R. McDonald. Rangiora).
