Not clear cut the lead. Baccarat Baby and Mywifesaidno will take up the running and may well fight out the finish. BACCARAT BABY started at prohibitive odds and only score narrowly last start over 1400m at the Sunshine Coast. Has now won 3/3 this prep and hard to deny her chances here as she looks in need of this sort of trip now. MYWIFESAIDNO looks the danger after driving late to score only to lose the race on protest last time out over 1400m at the Sunshine Coast. Lightly raced gelding with plenty of room for improvement. CURSE FREE handled the sharp rise in distance recently when a close 2nd over 1400m at the Gold Coast. Could surprise with the nice weight pull on the top two chances. RETAIRIUS for the exotics. SUGGESTED PLAY: Very keen on Baccarat Baby.
