No surprise to see Bombiscuit roll forward and lead them. BOMBISCUIT (8) put the writing on the wall last start at Warrnambool when beaten narrowly. Peaking now, just needs a touch of luck from the wide draw. MISS PANTHERLOT (10) was nearing the breakthrough before turning in a poor one at Murray Bridge. Steps out in trip off 35-day freshen and is a serious chance with a return to form. SPIRIT OF CLARA (11) warmed to her task nicely late when resuming over the 900m here. Will appreciate the rise in trip and could sneak into the frame again at long odds. SEE DE NIGHT (6) is another likely improver. Keeping safe. SUGGESTED PLAY: Bombiscuit to win.
