NZ TGIF….
Henry Hubber
Invercargill R5
3:20pm
Resumes from nearly a year away after doing very little in his three runs last prep. Obviously had some issues, his early form was excellent, imagine he’ll be needing this at $19…
BET: 2 units ew
Lochnaberry
Invercargill R6
3:55pm
Ditto this mare, though she has had one run this time in. She’s 4:1-1-0 second-up, but may need more time, $27 shot…

More Sass
Invercargill R7
4:25pm
The nice resuming run for fourth a month ago at Wingatui was followed up two weeks ago with a dominant five length win at Gore to break maidens. Up in grade and distance but does her best work on a heavy surface and the Mudman sticks, must be included as a $6 shot in a competitive betting event.
BET: 5 units ew
Buoyant
Invercargill R8
5:04pm
Shaped as if he was turning the corner two back at Riccy, then ran next to last there three weeks ago, though notably only four lengths off the winner. Has won one of six on heavy which might be a worry, but rates an EW investment at $8.

Poor last two needs to lift, $35 shot.

Not far off this prep but needs to find some earlier form, $17 on offer.

Natural leader in good form but moves up in grade here, still a chance if he gets out quick… $5 shot
BET: 5 units ew
Bifrost

Resumes and has decent first-up stats but if he gets back, the 955m will find him out here, $18 shot.

IATE back in grade here, and rates well on the consistent form he’s shown this prep, $3.70 fav.
RL resumed two weeks ago, better second-up, down in grade, place chance at $13.
BET: IATE 10 unit win, RL 3 units ew
