Not clear-cut the lead but there’s enough pace to ensure a good clip. THUNDERPLUMP draws the rail and followed the lip defeat here with the Bunbury win also in this grade. Will run along and can repeat with the claim. DYNABELLE won the CL2 FU and is back improved. Had come off a trial win and she looks a chance with a good ride. BEAUTIFUL MIND gets Pike first time and presents off a heavily-backed Maiden win. Draws to advantage and a repeat wouldn’t surprise. VEGA DIOR has ability and resumes off a strong trial win. Uses the handy draw and is a chance.
SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Thunderplump.
