MOUNT WELLINGTON has been in excellent form at this course over the last couple of months and he can have more success, despite his 4lb rise in the weights. Kupa River is down to a mark which gives him a great chance of scoring, while Lucky Lodge has a great record at this course and should be on the mix once again as he looks to follow up from his victory over 6f last time out.
