PILATES (6) Finished well when winning last time at Matamata but racing in stronger company. Jockey Michael Mcnab is in form for this stable. Shows good finishing speed. Can measure up to this company. BIDING MY TIME (8) First up after 23 weeks and assumed control from the start to win by 1 1/2L first up last preparation at this track. Has plenty of early speed. Should be competitive in this race at a bit of odds. COSMIC DREAM (2) First run back from a break. Was agonizingly close last run at this venue and can save some energy from the alley. Should muster plenty of early toe. Should go close. ECHANNAY (5) Fresh today after a break. Charged home to win last run at Rotorua and having second career run. Won't be far away during the run. Consider an each way bet.
