Embrace me has pace and the blinkers go on. Should be up there early. Of those that have raced expect Embrace Me, Solar Star and Zume Forward to show some speed. River Star should also be handy from a favourable gate. ANJANA proved too strong at her only start at Wangaratta with the sting out of the ground and will get every chance to repeat. More depth here though. RIVER STAR comes off a popular win at Cranbourne where she sat handy and held off the challengers. Go well again. EMBRACE ME debuted in city company and was in the market so respect here down in class and with the blinkers going on. Dame Of Thrones ran well on debut and Solar Star is also worth including. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Embrace Me with the blinkers on.
