My Little Viking may lead. KAISA (3) was beaten a whisker here and then gave away a big start at Mackay from a wide barrier and couldn't get into it. She's better set up today and can get back on track. FAIRYBOWER FLYER (8) was at long odds but lifted his figures at Mackay. Has the rail and Morrison is a key jockey switch. She's striking at 32% (last 50 rides). HUGHIE VUITTON (6) is third up with more to give. Has been freshened 39 days and retains a 3kg claim. SOSTHENES (1) trialled well but then had no luck here on debut. Draws awkwardly again but can get closer with average luck. SEA OF CORTEZ (5) is a better chance than the form line suggests. The blinkers are on again. SUGGESTED PLAY: With Kaisa.
