Genuine pace with Bellakai taking up the running ahead of Norwoods and Nordic. TO BE FRANK (6) presents third-up for the premier barn and is better suited stepping back to the 1525m. He has plenty up his sleeve and Shinn is a key jockey engagement. Well-placed at best. NORDIC (10) was quickly back on track beaten a lip at Geelong. John Allen sticks and hard-fit he's ready to win. SUPER DAWN (13) won her Maiden here over this distance spiking her figures. Maps for the run of the race and represents a leading yard. She's sure to keep improving. ARTRESE (2) will be fitter and the longer journey should suit. Knocking on the door. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing To Be Frank.
