Smoulder is the best horse here, I think. Elle Tresor, Extra Explosive, Tart 'N' Tartan and Stardom are all good as well. This is a really nice field.

13 49X12 Fastnet Lady (AUS) 11 70 54.5 Craig Grylls Graeme & Mark Sanders, Te Awamutu

Cellarmaster and Jimmy Choux were great to watch last year. It's 3-2 to Cellarmaster in their head-to-head. But it sounds like it'll be a wet track, and Jimmy handles the wet better.

Enjoyit was also very impressive in his only start, and I think Flash Hapi has a lot of ability as well.
