Debeersonus and That's A Slab can show early pace. BEST FORTUNE was only 2L away at this course and distance last time and enjoys a significant drop in grade. Had won her only other two runs at 1400m and doesn't look badly off at the weights. Even though beaten last run, this looks a good race for BEST FORTUNE. She enjoys being around this distance and will find this grade better than three weeks back. Anything like last run puts her with a top hope. LORD TOPPER will get a much better run than most recent outing. He can take up a forward position and run a race at odds. MARCO POLO goes best when leading. That might be the best option from that draw. DEBEERSONUS has run two good races for Eran Boyd. A little weight relief can only benefit. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Best Fortune each way - she drops in grade and likes this distance.
