★ Top pick3rd
1Fortune Asia
Fortune Asia scored last start in an identical race shape - same track, distance, and grade - defeating the well-performed Altiplano by a narrow margin.
2nd pickWon
2Altiplano
Altiplano is the model of consistency in this race, placing second in two runs at this exact track and trip, both narrowly beaten. The query remains whether he can convert placings into a win, but his synthetic form is undeniable and he rates as a major contender.
3rd pick2nd
5Madame Kleptomane
Madame Kleptomane won at this exact track and trip two runs back and has continued to race competitively since. Rates as a leading contender for a top-three finish.
Value pick6th
6La Cadiere
La Cadiere drops out of Rest. 61 grade back to a winnable maiden, having scored at this venue over 1300m. Barrier 2 assists tactical speed, and the class relief could see improved effort.

Winner2. RocmontSP $8.90
★ Top pickWon
2Rocmont
Rocmont arrives fresh off a narrow win at this same track and distance against tougher Bench 80 company, beating today's rival Oban in the process. The drop in grade to Bench 72 is significant, and with proven synthetic form and a jockey who has ridden him to victory, he rates as the most likely winner today on formfollowing rules despite the artificial weight rise.
2nd pick5th
4Oban
Oban's track and distance record is outstanding with 11 placings from 13 runs at Cambridge 1300m, and he was narrowly beaten by fellow class-dropper Rocmont last start. While his winning strike rate is modest, the consistency and course form make him a reliable each-way contender in this competitive, volatile grade.

Perfect Dividends has already won at this identical track/class combination and shows a highly consistent profile with a 45% career place rate.

9In The Vineyard
In The Vineyard presents the strongest and most consistent recent form in this maiden field, with four top-three finishes from six starts including a narrow defeat at this exact track and distance last start. Quick back-up suits a fit, progressive type.
2nd pick4th
6Alezando
Alezando has been racing consistently without breaking through, with a narrow 2nd placing two runs back and a competitive 4th last start at this venue. The inside gate and rapid back-up suggest she is racing to a good pattern. A leading contender but ceded slightly to In The Vineyard on strength of recent placing margins.
3rd pick2nd
2All Too Bold
All Too Bold has raced consistently at this track and distance, placing third in a recent Cambridge Synthetic maiden. A wide barrier is a query but a strong jockey booking and course form make him a solid each-way threat behind the top two fancied runners.
999th pickScratched
1Bit Of A Dagg
With only one subsequent poor run on a good surface at Te Rapa (unsuited surface), this looks the swiftest form reference in the race. Second-up and with the same jockey aboard, all signs point to continued improvement on a track it clearly loves.
Value pick8th
4Ready Eddie Go
Ready Eddie Go is a query on class and fitness first-up after a long spell, but he owns a genuine synthetic placing record and drops sharply in grade today.

3The Perfect One
The Perfect One arrives in career-best form having run credibly in this exact grade/track/distance just under two weeks ago. The rapid backup suggests underlying fitness, and the excellent hit-rate with regular rider Fawcett is a strong supporting signal for another bold showing.

The synthetic-specific form is a standout trait others lack, and the in-form rider adds further weight to a win case.

While the wide barrier and subdued last-start effort are mild concerns, the synthetic-specific record and fitness trajectory suggest she is overpriced relative to her genuine placing chances.

4Estilo
Estilo is the standout on raw form - won last start at this course and distance, is clearly improving, and has retained the rider who partnered that win. Despite a 49-day break, the trainer/jockey combo and synthetic proficiency make this the most reliable form-based selection, even with a manageable class field around her.

3Red Wings
As a debutant, Red Wings cannot be judged on raw form, but the connections' combined strike rate and inside barrier draw offer a credible platform.

Camila offers value as a lightly-raced type by a quality sire, first-up after a long break with a strong rider booked.

2Skymax
Skymax has won her last two starts specifically at this track and distance, showing clear synthetic aptitude and a strong finishing kick suited to the track profile. The modest class rise is easily covered by dominant recent form and elite connections. Best form and most reliable option in the race.
2nd pick7th
3Just A Karin
Just A Karin ran a competitive second at this same track and distance in similar grade only two starts back, and today's material class drop from Open grade races plays to her strengths. Consistent if unspectacular, she offers solid place claims with each-way winning upside.
3rd pick2nd
5Midori Burly
Midori Burly has shown he handles Cambridge Synthetic well, finishing runner-up last start over today's exact distance and class level just below today's grade. The rise to BM80 is notable but his recent trajectory and course form make him a strong each-way threat behind the top two.
999th pickScratched
6Up With Ace
Up With Ace was last seen winning at this exact track and distance, narrowly getting the better of Midori Burly. Lightly raced with clear improvement, the gelding draws well in barrier 1 for the turning Cambridge Synthetic circuit. The class rise is a query, but the recent CS form line is compelling enough to include as a third selection.
Value pickWon
4Prisca
Prisca arrives in career-best form having won last start, and her light weight allocation offsets the class rise.

Winner6. Pine LeafSP $3.20
★ Top pick2nd
1Erase
Erase has already proven he can win at this exact track/distance/class combination and arrives well below his recent Bench 75 level. Strong synthetic affinity and consistent top-3 record make him the most credentialed runner on raw form, despite a modest jockey booking.
2nd pickWon
6Pine Leaf
Pine Leaf has been knocking on the door with back-to-back thirds at this circuit and drops into a moderate-tempo affair suited to her finishing type.
3rd pick7th
5Romanin
Romanin scored impressively at Awapuni Synthetic last prep before finding Bench 71 tougher, and the drop back to Maiden grade should suit. Proven synthetic form and a good gate make her a strong wildcard, though the step out to 2000m is a slight query.
Value pick5th
2Realta Forsai
Realta Forsai's narrow second at this same track and distance last start stands up well, and with only three starts under his belt there is clear scope for improvement.
