These three year olds won't want to be trapped wide so pace will ensue. A big field with plenty of speed to come in the shape of All About Charlie, Duellator and Vivid Image. The interesting runner is DREAM MASTER who comes to the stable of Toby Edmonds after just two starts under Chris Waller. Has not been produced since finishing a well-beaten 5th over 1150m at the Newcastle Beaumont circuit two months ago. Trialled well on the Gold Coast recently and has drawn perfectly so all points to a successful return. GALLANT GIRL was a real eye-catcher last start when she thundered home from a long way back to grab 3rd over this course and distance. Will be peaking today at her third run back from a spell. ALL ABOUT CHARLIE showed some early toe on debut over 1000m at Taree then stuck on well for 2nd in an encouraging start to her career. Should relish the extra ground today. CEDAR RAPIDS got a long way back last start but made up significant ground. One to watch out for late in the piece. SUGGESTED PLAY: Dream Master might be the safe way.
