A number are capable of racing handy but no designated leader. This is a competitive race. KIJITO missed a lip twice before coming back a bit in grade and winning at Grafton. Draws handy and will be tough to beat in his current form. PORTUGUESE TART followed two near misses at Doomben with the CL1 win here. That rated very well and he’s right in it again with the 3kg claim. TEMUJIN'S MOON won and then was beaten a lip both at Ipswich and finds easier grade. Uses the rail and will go close with the 3kg claim aboard. WHODUNNIT is also a chance.
SUGGESTED PLAY: Will play multiples standing the top two selections.
