---|---|---|---|---|
Small field but plenty of pace engaged, including Dream Storm, Topspin and Masatora. HOLLY'S STAR (5) wasn't far off here last start at just her second outing. She looks suited to the rise in trip and should have natural improvement to come. TOPSPIN (4) was no match for a dominant winner at this track and trip last time out but was good in second and will be better for it. Strong chance. BENBULBEN (1) was quite good first up at Moe and will strip fitter while MASATORA (3) is in the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Holly's Star on top.
