Solid pace likely with Right Now prominent. MICKIO (9) has had two runs back from a spell and should be ready to fire now. Both have been over 1600m at Pakenham and he's been thereabouts in both. Still plenty of upside to come and the rise in trip is exactly what he wants now. ALMAIRAC (6) is a lightly raced type who scored first-up at Pakenham. Should only improve up in trip given his breeding and from the low draw he looks to get a good run. RUNNING ON TIME (8) doesn't win out of turn but has been running well in some handy races, the latest at Caulfield Heath over 1800m. Should give a sight around here. KENTUCKY NICK (3) is going well. Back in trip perhaps the query but he's in the mix. ARIZONA DREAMING (5) won narrowly last time and could measure up. SUGGESTED PLAY: Mickio on top.
