A solid tempo on the cards with Only The Best leading the way. ONLY THE BEST (1) is making his local debut after showing a fair bit of promise in Victoria. His last run was only 18 days ago on an unsuitable wet track and a drop back in journey will do him no harm. He is perfectly drawn in the pole position and is the one to beat. PRANCINGINTHERAIN (3) makes up a trio of ex-Victorian performers. She has been given more time to acclimatise and has the right draw to make her presence felt fresh up. ANGELIQUE (2) strips fitter after a fresh up third at Darwin a fortnight ago. The small field is in her favour and she is also capable of taking this out. SUGGESTED PLAY: Only The Best to win.
