Solid tempo anticipated and MISS APPLETON looks the most likely to take it up. There are three burners in the opening event namely Miss Appleton, Los Vargas and Morse Code so how they race each other and for how long will determine plenty about this race outcome. LOS VARGAS from gate two has options galore. Class dropper and down 3kg staggeringly. Dual winner fresh up. MISS APPLETON will come out from the ace all fire and brimstone. It is what happens the first 400m and then across the top that matters. Races well here and remember this is first use of the track. LET HER RIP as her name suggests is a closer. Found out in Australia. Easier back in New Zealand. Winner of two of three fresh up runs. Nomisma and Good Sav have scope. Both run home hard. Include. SUGGESTED PLAY: Miss Appleton for the win off strong recent form.
