---|---|---|---|---|
Solid tempo anticipated with Time Scale taking charge. GLUTEN FREE (4) is a tough local veteran who pretty much races exclusively on his home track although this prep he has finished runner-up when resuming at Pinjarra and then a fair 70 at Ascot last time out. He improves with racing and at this level, he is the one to beat. NODUSTONME (5) has raced his way back into some good form at Esperance. He is 10 years old now but still retains his dash and won't have to improve by much on his last start second to be winning this. TIME SCALE (3) is a locally trained stablemate of the top pick who has winning form fresh up in the past. A 3kg claim will help his cause and he is worth including in all combinations. NOBLE REFLECTION (2) has been mixing his form this prep on his home track of Esperance and a chance of scenery could be all that he needs to show his best. Each-way value. SUGGESTED PLAY: Gluten Free to win.
