K. Morton 5 6013 MAGIC EYE (14) 53.5. Followed up win at Gore with third at Invercargill. Looks back to her best. E. Winsloe 6 70 SHIFNAL KING (12) 53. Age may have caught up with him. 7 3152 EROS (15) 52.5. Strong run for second to Magic Eye at Gore at last start. Rain would boost his chance. 8 6686 GREAT DAY (6) 52.5.
