Genuine tempo from Poet's Day leading Double Barrell.
POET'S DAY (3) looks to be one of the better bets of the day after winning in this grade last time out by over 4 lengths. He is unbeaten on this circuit and with only 1.5 kilos more to carry, he is the one to beat again. RUBY'S LAD (2) is a handy performer on his day and his last couple of runs have been in stronger company, including a last start third at Toowoomba just over a fortnight ago. Bubba Tilley picks up the ride and he may be able to coax that little bit extra out of him where it matters most. BIE'RES (4) has been thereabouts in 4 starts since winning at the Gold Coast on their poly track in March. A 4-kilo claim will help her and she is worth including in all combinations. MOTAMAYIZ (1) is racing his way back into full fitness and is normally very competitive at this level. He is at his best over a mile and is ready to put his best hoof forward here. Each way value. SUGGESTED PLAY: Poet's Day to win.
