BEST BETS

Ashburton June 4, R4 Scarfi: Good form on the track and rates well in this line-up after last-start sixth and second before that.

Ellerslie June 5, R7 Air Centre: Back in form on dead track here last month and won’t be worried by heavy ground. Excellent value at current FF offering of $8.

Wanganui June 5, R7 Hartley: Genuine sort who keeps going good races. Distance right, bound to give a sight and the each-way odds appeal.
