Expecting Pure Tango and Barge And Charge to roll forward early. NOT SO LADY LIKE ran a much improved race when stepping up in trip last time for second on the main track. She should be hard fit after three runs this time in and is drawn to get a cushy run in transit. A good sized field in the longer race on the card should make for some interesting tactics. TUNES is a horse who doesn't win all the time but he gives you a sight every time. The claim could be a real factor today. NOT SO LADY LIKE is bred to be a real stayer. Now starting to get to the right trip, she is so well weighted. Ready to be peaking now. FLYING CASINO didn't come into his last run but before that was beating these. He'll be around the money. BELLA SPOSA enjoyed getting up in ground at Naracoorte. Has another 250m today. SUGGESTED PLAY: Not So Lady Like straight out - she looks close to a win.
