Plenty of lightly raced horses engaged so the map is fairly speculative. Invictum Domina and Mandee will both be right up there. TERINDAH ran well here last week in a stronger race than this. Winner dominated the race on speed and the margin looks unfair. Form should work out at this level. Some nice three year old horses here. MANDEE might well be a promising filly. She led all the way to break her maiden with some ease. She had been tossed in the deep end first start. SPEEDEOR did much the same thing two weeks ago. He gets the longer trip but does have to deal with a bad barrier. TERINDAH ran into a decent horse last start that just went too fast. He backs up so must have done OK. MAGELLAN looked good in winning on debut. He should be improved by that. RUN GYPSY RUN didn't beat much but is well bred. SUGGESTED PLAY: Open race. Happy to have something on Terindah each way.
