A solid tempo on the cards with Captain Taz taking charge. DAIQUIRI DIVA (9) sits on the limit weight and has been racing well without winning. Raced a $3 equal favourite last time and can enjoy a soft run. Gets her chance in this lineup. BLONDE STAR (4) won the Maiden here by a space as expected and then improved again when beaten 1.3L at Launceston at this level. Has an inside barrier and can keep improving. A live chance. The stablemates LET'S MESSAROUND (3) and LONTANO (2) are both last-start Maiden winners. The former rated the best but they both have upside. CAPTAIN TAZ (1) has claims if he takes his place. SUGGESTED PLAY: Leaning to Daiquiri Diva.
