Whisky Sour should lead and control the tempo. GOTTA GO GURU (9) was denied narrowly of getting off the mark at the latest. Cherry-ripe now and only has to hold her form to be taking this out. KETCHIKAN (3) finds the maiden win elusive but rates highly on best figures. Has run well over this track and trip and is among the key chances. EXALTED BELLE (7) is another that finds it tough to break the ice. Came through a strong form race two back at Strathalbyn but failed to follow it up last time when sent out public elect. Worth one more chance. OUR SWOOSH (4) will be doing his best work late. Keep safe. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Gotta Go Guru to win.
