---|---|---|---|---|
The scratchings have robbed some of the anticipated speed. Wide open affair to kick off the card. BEEBEE DAZZLER (6) is a very consistent conveyance who has hit the top two in nine of 11 career outings and is yet to miss a drum in seven starts here around his home circuit. Orman stays on board from the favourable draw and should be going very close again. TIJUANA TWO STEP (9) broke through for a well-deserved victory at Doomben last time out and will have derived a stack of confidence from that win. Gets 2kg off with the claim and cannot be ignored. DREAM LANTERN (18) boasts a win around this circuit and can feature on best form. TALANA (17) is a two-time winner over this track and trip and is yet to run a poor race. In the mix. DRAMMATICA (11) is next best with Maloney in the stirrups. SUGGESTED PLAY: Beebee Dazzler each-way.
