Genuine pace with Palikari taking up the running. PALIKARI (5) was well-supported on debut in the heavy (9) going when a battling second over 1200m at Gosford on April 4. Strips fitter now and drops back a level for this. Will go forward and take catching. SUPER STORY (10) looks ready to win on the quick back-up after sitting on the pace for a gritty second over 1300m at Moree on April 2. Gets map favours from the gate and trains on the track. NOBLE ONE (2) kept fresh when tired late to run sixth over 1100m at Hawkesbury on March 28. Fitter now and best figures can see him take a hand in the finish. TIGON PRINCESS (12) Dundeel filly who returned for second prep with an eye catching fifth over 1250m at Taree on April 2. Fitter now and extra trip suits. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 5,10,2,12.
