No noted leader but Black Sands, Rocking Pretty and Northeast Eagle will be prominent. SCENERY (2) put in a big run for second fresh up at Belmont earlier in the year and has not been too bad in 3 subsequent efforts without all the luck in the world. He will find things easier in the country and will relish the step up to a mile. This is the right race for him and he is overdue for his first victory. MYSTERY BULLET (6) is a stablemate of the top pick who has resumed with a couple of tough runs for fourth to open this campaign on both of the Pinjarra courses. He will appreciate the extra furlong and will also be spot-on with his fitness third up. Hard to beat from a handy gate. LE GRAND JEU (3) ran his best race this prep when resuming for second at York. He is back at that level here and can bounce back into the money. Each-way value. STRUCK BY LUCK (5) has the blinkers on last start and ran the race of an improver when finishing runner-up here 10 days ago. He is drawn to lead early on and could take them all of the way this time. SUGGESTED PLAY: Struck By Luck each-way.
