---|---|---|---|---|
Plenty of early pace from Dazzling Diamond and Khant Quit vying for the lead, with a few others keeping them honest. STELLER EAGLE (17) returned in good order with a close-up second at Toowoomba and is drawn to get a soft run in transit from gate two. Strips fitter and rates a serious player against this line-up. DAZZLING DIAMOND (11) looked handy placing over this course and distance on debut and will have derived a stack of benefit from that day at the races. In the mix. LIKE SMOKE (19) has hit the top-four at the past four outings and may earn some minor money again. CANTANKEROUS (5) is facing the starter for the first time and any market confidence must be respected. SUGGESTED PLAY: Stellar Eagle each-way.
